My thoughtful son went back the next weekend (after I had gone home) and I received this wonderful glass box as one of my Christmas presents. The little scene is Mount Hood. I just love it! the scene is about 2 1/4" square, with the frame 2 1/2". She must work with a magnifying glass and tweezers. Be sure to click on the pictures to see the details.
We went back the next year and she was gone. I was so disappointed. Well, we found her this year. She said she had taken some time off and was back doing the show again. Still no website. Her business is called "The Wolfe Works"
I fell in love with this little framed piece. The center miniature is set on clear glass, hard to tell from this picture. The frame is the true color, but the picture is washed out. The true colors are below. He prices are VERY reasonable. this framed piece, 8 inches square, was only $50, and no tax in Portland.
If ever in Portland, be sure to visit the Saturday Market. I have made many other purchases there, too.

What a find! (And what a thoughtful son!)
We have been to the market also and I loved it. Once when we were crossing the street, a young woman stopped Paul and said, "you are extremely good looking".....he was rather taken aback but she looked totally 'normal' so we laughed and remembered that day. I bought a sweater from Peru...very heavy and warm. I really like Portland and decided to be born there many many years ago.....Sue
