Gordon's Select Market, McCleary, Washington, pt. 1

Abbott's multi-panel mural on the always excellent Gordon's Select Market building in McCleary, Washington was a large, ambitious work. It faced west and endured a lot of punishment from the coastal wind and rain. Detail taken Sept. 25, 2010.

Abbott's portrait of Gordon himself.

Taken Mar. 31, 2011. The Simpson door manufacturing plant can be seen in the background.

Very nice detail taken Mar. 30, 2012. Abbott was much better at landscapes than he was at portraits. 

This and following two images were taken June 7, 2012. 

This particular portrait always gave me the creeps. I always called him "The Demon Child."

 

A grocery scene. 

The following photos were taken Sept. 18, 2011
