Portland suffers from a lack of color for a good part of the year. Due to a lack of general sunlight the leaf bearing trees give up their photosynthetic pursuits in favor of a long period of hibernation. This is all in contrast to the Summer months, when the local flora issues forth a great bounty of fully saturated colors. Portland may be known as a very green city, but it can be oppressively gray during these winter months. The remedy? We hole ourselves up in the studio and create our own light & color.
