An unlikely performance of a dad and daughter

Check out this photograph!

Our friend Uli, a dad and musician
and his daughter, Uma, a gymnast
have put their talents together to
perform for Uli’s brother’s
wedding back in his native Italy.
Since awhile, Uli Kirchler has put
his music a bit on the back burner
to spend his time making spectacular
wooden vases which he sells at
Portland Saturday Market every
weekend.

Uma practices gymnastics many hours at
her gym and the instructors would like to
increase this time . . . but Mom and Dad
said no . . . so Uma catches up those
hours at home with her gymnastic friends . . .
just for fun!

What a good idea to go from the US to a
family gathering in Italy with two talents
so unlikely to match!

By the way, we request a weekend performance
here in Portland!

Once you have checked out Uli's work, come across the path
to Mesman Images and look at our wall decor.

The weather forecast is perfect for a visit to the Portland Waterfront

Wow!   The weather forecast is promising for this weekend.  We just about thought that we'd lost the beautiful Oregon summers forever . . . the 90's dropped into the 70's and the "canicule" (French) has taken a welcome break.

 Here is a long lost view of a cloudy sky (taken yesterday) and . . . guess what . . . Portland Saturday Market is open all weekend and . . . we wont have to deal with  the scorching heat. 

Come and stroll through the Market  and stop at Mesman Images Row 200 space 216 to check out our photographs and digital paintings of beautiful Oregon.  Available as gallery wraps, canvas panels or matted and unmounted prints.  We are located close to the food court.

It is Summer! Portland's Waterfront and its multiple fun things to do.

This last weekend of June is perfect to show Portland visitors a nice day at Waterfront Park.  While on Sunday it will be a beautiful day in the upper 60's . . . it will pretty much be a dry day on Saturday, although the forecast includes three of those very SPECTACULAR and EXTREMELY SHORT showers as we have experienced the last 2 days.

  

 Well . . . during the first shower at 10am, you can visit the Portland Saturday Market and stroll under the canopies, the bridge, and the plinth . . . decide what would you like to take home at the end of the day . . . choose . .  and . . . pick it up as you leave in the evening!

The second shower, at 1pm, is a good time to visit our Pee and Poop facilites . . . they're well organized due the fact that everyone has to wait for his or her turn 

then visit our food court featuring good food from very different parts of the world and have a meal under our large canopy with ample seating while your kids have fun in the fountain and the rain nearby.   Bon appétit!

The 4pm shower . . . no reason to explain what happens . . . go to Mesman Images (row 200 space 216) and pick up the canvas or the print you studied in the morning, while you tried to locate the 9 wonderful landmarks included in YvonneMestre's digital painting.  By the way . . . Mesman Images does ship  . . and . . . ships only at cost  . . . no fee.

AND . . . if you saw this blog ask for 15% discount!

The rest of the day have fun at Waterfront Park!

A great weekend in Portland, Oregon

A great thing to do this weekend is to check out Portland's Waterfront, the old town, and of course the popular Portland Saturday Market that's also open on Sundays.  Walk through the Esplanade, relax on the lawn, checking out the massive steel of the double-deck, vertical-lift bridge . . . the Steel Bridge as the name indicates . . . have a bite at Portland SaturdayMarket's food court, then find some original, handmade souvenirs at Portland Saturday Market, or find a new creative piece to decorate your home . . . and since we are in Oregon, there is zero sales tax.

Weekend at Portland Oregon's Waterfront

Did you know that there are actually three different weekend markets at Portland's Waterfront?

The oldest, existing since 1974, is the only juried one.  Portland Saturday Market (open on Sundays too!) doesn't allow imports from China, nor can its vendors sell items that aren't handmade or selfmade.  Portland Saturday Market is not to be confused with the Skidmore Market and World Market, both of which are set up right next to the Portland Saturday Market, and selling items originating from anywhere in the world.

Check out the quality of the creative items sold at Portland Saturday Market  (Sat10am to 5pm and Sun 11am to 4:30pm)  and come visit us at the Mesman Images booth on the waterfront space 216 near the food-court and get 10% off any purchase.

Small Business Saturday at Portland Saturday Market

At Mesman Images, we don't just sell ordinary photography.  We are different.  We've created our own method of combining multiple images into one work of art that's vastly more interesting and attractive than a mere collage.  Our customers frequently ask, "Are these paintings?"  We call them  "digital paintings".  Here are a couple of examples.

Seasons at Multnomah Falls & Fantasy at Portland Japanese Garden

We print these giclees on canvas and either stretch them as "gallery wraps" or mount them on wood.

Don't forget, Small Business Saturday, the day that's dedicated to supporting small businesses like ours, is this weekend (Nov. 30th), sandwiched between Black Friday and Cyber Monday.   We hope to see you at Portland Saturday Market in our booth #208 under the Burnside Bridge in Waterfront Park.  Mention this post or Small Business Saturday and we'll give you 10% off of any purchase! 

Check out more digital paintings here tomorrow.
