The artist is Jo Hamilton,
"she is a painter by trade,
but her recent work has manifested itself
in a truly exciting new medium: crochet.
She spends hours calmly, painstakingly crocheting
large-scale depictions of Portland's cityscape
as well as portraits of her dearest friends.
The work is impressively meticulous and pleasingly colorful;
Jo interprets shadows through tone and color.
She also organizes her gigantic collection of yarn
according to their tonal ranges:
warm and cool versions of each color
residing in their right and individual places.
