Art and Architecture at an Airport

Gayle...such beautiful  photos you took.  Hoping to see the area some days in my travels.

Hi Debb Janes , I appreciate Modern Art and I have done award winning pieces of it, but when it comes to creating, I prefer realism.  Thanks for sharing those awesome photos.

Gayle,

It is a beautiful airport, no doubt about that.  Last time we were there we landed way out on the tarmac from Santa Barbara, and it was a long walk to get to the building.  On the way back, we went through the building and back outside to the tarmac where the little planes fly from.  Yes, there is art everywhere, one has to be in the mindset to find it.  A

I really love the photos...very nice work taking all those pictures. 

Ha, came over because of Larry. Love that he confused us. I too love our airport. I'm always to happy to fy back home. It's clean, welcoming and visually beautiful.  Plus. the piano player in the main lobby makes me smile. Art is everywhere.  Ron and Alexandra were in the concourse where Alaska's smaller planes fly in/out. I'm so familiar with it...

Gayle I do believe you've come up with a great idea for rainers to do in airports - take interesting pictures!  You've given us all a great start.....love it!

That is definitely some interesting art, although it does nothing for me personally, haha.  I much prefer your photography, as that is more enjoyable art to me!!

Hi Gayle - Those are very cool photos. It's been a long time since I was in the Portland airport - I'll have to do something about that soon :)

Your admonition that art is everywhere if we simply look for it is a great reminder. I agree with you that airports are often dramatically beautiful places.

How cool that someone actually painted the inner gearings of a time piece

Gayle, you most likely were like a kid in a candy shop with all that surrounded you.  Nice shots.  Mark

Great photos!  I've been flying in and out of PDX a LOT the past few months (many trips to CA to help some family members) and every time I fly in or out I realize why PDX repeatedly wins the Travel + Leisure Magazine Award for Best Airport in the U.S!  The food and shops are amazing, and like you, I love the piano man!
