Trapper John Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 In my zeal to get started on this site I failed to introduce myself, soooo... I'm a retiree in St Helens, Oregon. Although I am not a Native American I have an interest in Pacific Northwest Native art and I am presently interested in combining formline art with intarsia but have found very little reference material that incorporates both disciplines - not a big surprise. As a novice in both I signed up for this site in hopes of learning and sharing knowledge. To date the kind folks who have replied to my first post have been most supportive!

Dan Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Welcome to The Village! I like your idea of combining art forms. What you want to do is very doable and sounds interesting. I can't wait to see the outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Welcome John, I too am a native Oregonian, as I was born in Tillamook and lived in Oregon for 77 years and recently moved to Arizona. I have a cousin who also lives in St. Helens and retired from teaching school there, just last year. Travis, the one who originated and is our head bottle washer, lives in Vancouver, Washington and works in Portland. There are a couple of other Oregon people who live in the Portland area that are members here in the Village. Glad to have you as a member here. Hope to you post often.
