Coast Weekend April 5, 2012 by Our Coast

RiverSea Gallery Wool paintings and light sculptures on display ASTORIA — During April, RiverSea Gallery will present a narration of beauty and light with the work of three Portland artists and the exhibition “Geisha and The Lantern.” An opening night reception and artists’ talk will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday, April 7. This event will be followed by an artist’s reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday, April 14, in conjunction with Astoria’s Second Saturday Art Walk, during which a new series of Paula Blackwell’s dreamlike encaustic paintings will be presented. Stacy Polson, a longtime fiber artist, has merged storytelling with her passion for color and texture. Her “wool paintings” combine the richness of visual aesthetics through composition along with her skilled technique of needle felting, a process in which fiber is adhered to fabric. Her intricate “paintings” are comprised of hand-felted wool along with just about any other fiber she can get her hands on to work within her mythical tale of the Geisha. When discussing the origins and inspiration of her work she stated, “Once upon a time, I began to wonder how old Japanese woodcuts might look made of felt because I loved the colorful kimonos and cartoon-like faces. I’d worked with felt in the past, making intricately appliqued tapestries on my sewing machine and had enjoyed it. But for this project I found that my store-bought felt was limiting me from achieving what I’d envisioned. I was mulling over the messy prospect of dying it when I discovered, tucked away in the nook of my local yarn store, a few items labeled “needle-felting.” Since this discov-

ery, she’s found endless inspiration from bundles of wool, velvet and other materials. About her process she said, “It’s allowed me to experiment like never before because I can simply remove a mistake by plucking out the wool. And what other medium lets you paint and sculpt and virtually needs no cleanup?” Lâm Quảng and Kestrel Gates, who comprise the artistry behind HiiH Lights, are a Portland couple who create unique handmade lighting. Working with natural materials, they work collaboratively from concept and design to the final creation of their original paper light sculptures, utilizing both traditional and self-taught techniques. Inspired deeply by the natural world and natural life cycles, the couple also draws extensively from Asian aesthetics. “For us, this work feels both functional and expressive. These materials offer great flexibility, allowing for intricate and exacting lines as well as loose, organic forms. Sometimes we use the absence of color, other times we use soft, watery hues or bold,

striking color to bring life to each piece. A layer of wax transforms the paper into a skin-like transparency, preparing it for our final medium, which is light itself.” Quảng, who is originally from Vietnam, was inspired at an early age by the lamps of moon festivals that etched vivid memories as a child. He met and joined forces with Gates in 2004. It was her background with the performing arts that added another dimension to the lamps. Together the function of light, the craft of paper and the art of sculpture have merged to create the perfect marriage. RiverSea Gallery is located at 1160 Commercial St. and features original art, fine craft and jewelry by established and emerging artists from the Northwest and beyond. Business hours are 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays.

Coastal Life Spring run salmon fishing 101

BY MARILYN GILBAUGH

“I

t’s all about the ‘feel.’ Ask any seasoned fisherman and he will tell you it’s not about landing the fish – that’s all about tiring the fish out. The real thrill is that first ‘feel,’” said Seaside resident and lifelong sport fisherman Bill Teeple. The “feel” the fisherman is after is a barely perceptible quick tug on the line, fish-talk from the somewhere around 15+ pound fish (that’s before the fish stories begin) telling the fisherman “I took the bait.” For the best part of the next hour, one fisherman will try to land one spring chinook. Pacific salmon have existed for 10 to 12 million years, according to Amber Gayle writing in Earth First! Journal. In a nutshell: Making their way from fresh water to the ocean when they are about 6 months old, the chinook enter the ocean, deliberately turning left or right. For the next two or three years, the salmon mature in the Pacific, sometimes traveling thousands of miles from where they began their expedition. These amazing fish have an acute sense of smell that, it’s believed, directs them back to their original freshwater entry point, ready to make a hard-fought journey returning to their birthplace to spawn and then to die. It’s on this return trip upriver that spring run chinook fishermen do their own springing, as “into action.” Whether afloat or wading a stream, the game is on. It all gets going, usually sometime in early February, when winter-weary fishing enthusiasts will begin to emerge from too many short, dark days spent thumbing through fishing magazines and online fishing sites. Sluggish behavior will

be replaced by an interest in snow runoff and river and stream water levels. Meanwhile, at Astoria’s Pier 39, the fishermen’s bane – the seals and the sea lions, themselves avid and skilled fish snaggers – will be on alert for their share of the spring bounty. At the Hammond Grocery and Bait Store, where the store’s apt tagline is “Fishermen Gather Here,” fishermen in trucks towing boats arrive from all over the United States. They have called the store to preorder fresh sand shrimp, anchovy or the latest sure-thing buzz in bait. Swing by anytime after 4 a.m. to pick up an order; make sure to have a fishing license and get in line with the others who got there first. Here they come, Columbia. The bait book is beginning to shape up for 2012. “2011 was a good spring season,” says enthusiastic employee Tina Mull. The orders are confirmed by page after page in store owner Samantha “Sam” Lundberg’s loose-leaf binder. “The average angler expends an average of 21 hours fishing for every spring chinook retained,” reports The Guide’s Forecast. “But once you catch one of these fish for a barbecue of only your closest friends, you’ll understand why it’s worth the wait. This salmon is the finest tasting on the entire West Coast and it’s available six months out of the year from Oregon waters.” The lore and the lure of spring salmon fishing is here again, all part of the rite of passage of the chinook and the people who more or less live to – or would like to live to – fish for them. It sounds and tastes like a fine choice.

(Spring chinook) salmon is the finest tasting on the entire West Coast and it’s available six months out of the year from Oregon waters.

Did you know? • The chinook salmon’s scientific name is Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, from the Greek words onkos (hook) and rynchos (nose). Tshawytscha is the common name for the species in Siberia and Alaska. • Other common names are King salmon, tyee salmon, Columbia River salmon, black salmon, chub salmon, hook bill salmon, winter salmon and blackmouth. • The chinook salmon is blue-green on the back and top of the head with silvery sides and white belly, and black spots on the upper half of its body with gray/black mouth coloration. It can reach up to 58 inches in length and weigh up to 129 pounds, although the most common size is up to 36 inches in length and up to 30 pounds. — Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission

John Ciminello will teach this course about the challenges and gifts of autism, including causes, characteristics, treatments and the future of care.

Clatsop Community College New course offered in basics of autism ASTORIA — Autism represents one of the most mysterious and intriguing of all developmental disabilities. The characteristics of autism include deficits in communication, social judgment, cognitive abilities, the skill to organize and sequence information, as well as a tendency to exhibit a restricted repertoire of ritualistic behaviors and profound sensory and perception problems. And yet in the face of this difficult and isolating condition, people with autism represent some of the most remarkable and insightful people on the planet. For instance, Daniel Tammet, author of “Born On a Blue Day,” is an autistic savant with the ability to calculate in his head multiplication problems such as 941 times 1356. His method is as unusual as his gift. He sees numbers as unique shapes, colors, textures, and feelings: nines are large

hooded figures, ones represent small sparkly shapes, and sixes are small, hollow lonely places. Tammet projects the number shapes into the air and visually perceives the answer in the shapes between the numbers. This training will introduce the participant to the challenges and gifts of autism. The class will explore the causes, characteristics and treatments and the future of care for these interesting and unusual members of the community. The course will be from 6 to 8 p.m. three successive Wednesdays, April 11, 18 and 25, at the main Clatsop Community College campus at 1651 Lexington Ave. For more information, contact Paula Duncan, Education for Life Coordinator, at (503) 338-2408, or the instructor, John Ciminello, at (360) 484-7760.

Bruce Smith and friends rock out

ASTORIA — The Astor Street Opry Company’s original historical, hysterical musical melodrama, “The Real Lewis and Clark Story (or How Finns Discovered Astoria),” opens Thursday, April 12, and runs every Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. until Saturday, May 5, with Sunday matinees April 15 and 22 at 2 p.m., at the ASOC Playhouse at 129 W, Bond St. Doors open one-half hour before curtain. As a special treat, ASOC will partner with Chef Chris Holen and Baked Alaska to offer a one-nightonly theater with dinner Friday, April 13, featuring fine local cuisine. Seating is limited and early reservations are recommended. In conjunction with many local tourism organizations and venues from both sides of the river, ASOC will present a special “Hometown Tourism Ticket” night Saturday, April 21, where tickets are only $5 each. The “historically accurate,” family-friendly performance from the Astor Street Opry Company is based on a discovery in 2001 of an important pioneer journal uncovered in the Uniontown area of Astoria. The story comes directly from the long-lost journal of an original Clatsop County pioneer. Based on his true tale of adventure, struggle and fortune, ASOC turned his story into a piece of fine theater stagecraft that will work its way into your heart and memory. The cast of characters right out of the pages of history come alive through reenactment, song, dance and bad jokes in this lost piece of socially significant melodrama. See the “real” story of how Astoria was first discovered by two Finnish boys from the old country (Minnesota) who with the

hese are people who are really connected to their roots,” says Clatsop Community College instructor Richard Rowland, who with cocurator Lillian Pitt has organized one of the most interesting art exhibits to come along in years. “Pacific Rim Art Exhibit: Emergence From Place” opens at 6 p.m. Thursday, April 5, at the CCC Art Gallery, where Chris Briden, a viola degamba player from the Puyallup Tribe, will perform. Rowland worked for several years to put together this show of work by Maori artists from New Zealand, Native Hawaiian artists, and Native artists from the Northwest. “I’m interested in currents of emotional context,” says Rowland. “How are relationships to landscape put into the cultural practice of visual artists?” To seek answers, he asked the artists for their help, “and what inspires me is their openness, their willingness to share ideas.” “The contemporary cultural expressions brought to us by these artists are evidence of centuries of exploration, voyaging, and adventure around the ‘ring of fire’ and lead us toward a changing world.” says Rowland. These works are “connected through shared values and spirit-inspired by the deep-rooted historical relationships that come from their love of the land and its community. Their work is always changing form but remain living organisms that can unify collective experience into a creative mythical form.” Rowland says of these Pacific Rim artists: “The memory of a person’s community and ancestors should be a part

of contemporary thought. There is a responsibility by these artists to be ‘art elders,’ to educate their community and the world about their work, as a community. The biggest difference between native cultures and ours is a sense of community.”

‘The memory of a person’s community and ancestors should be a part of contemporary thought.’ — Richard Rowland CCC art instructor Gail Tremblay’s eloquent baskets are woven from 16mm film. Tremblay, a descendant of Onondaga and Micmac ancestors, says her work reflects “the way that materials taken from the earth and refined using technologies that can pollute the environment can be made shiny so that they become a metaphor for contemporary culture which glitters and destroys.” This exhibit is not simply a display of art. Rowland wants “to learn from them, and I want them to meet my community.” Before the show’s opening, the artists will have talked on KMUN, been welcomed with a dinner and a blessing on Clatsop Beach, and will have convened with local high school students through “fishbowl conversations.” There will also be a lecture and one full day of workshops at CCC. The exhibit will include ceramics, printmaking, weaving, woodcarving and mixed media. “Their work celebrates innovation and development of neotraditional works,” says Rowland, but he insists that it is also the “physical and cultural interaction.” That is, the artists themselves, the art elders.

Spring ingredients and recipes

COAST WEEKEND’S LOCAL RESTAURANT REVIEW mouth@coastweekend.com

t’s been a long winter, with late snow and stormy weather, but at last it seems that the worst may be over, and we can look forward to a fruitful springtime of cool, sunny days and wonderful produce. The Astoria Sunday Market will be up and running again next month, and it’s a great place to buy fresh, local, inexpensive food, often directly from the person who grew it. I’m most looking forward to asparagus, my favorite vegetable. I like to buy it by the case when the prices are rock-bottom, and pickle the majority for use throughout the year. This is especially smart of me since I all but burn myself out on grilled, roasted or sauteed spears this time of year when the getting is good. I’ll provide two recipes; one super simple pickling procedure that can be used for anything (it’s how I do my pickled red onions and my jalapeno rings), and one tailored specifically for asparagus. Both are fresh pickles that don’t require canning, but should last more than a month. Pro tip: Whenever working with asparagus, bend the individual spears until they snap. They naturally snap at the point where they become “woody,” so the root end is garbage, and the (usually) longer tip portion is what you use. You’ll see that they all have their own special snap point. Cutting the bottom couple of inches off of a bunch with a knife is faster, and produces uniform spears, but leads to inconsistent tenderness. Texture trumps presentation. 3-2-1-1 Super-Simple All-Purpose Pickling Recipe 3 cups white vinegar 2 cups water

14 | April 5, 2012 | coastweekend.com

1 cup sugar 1 tablespoon Kosher salt Whatever vegetable you’re pickling Mix your water, sugar, salt and vinegar together and bring to boil. Pour over raw vegetable and let cool to room temperature before refrigerating. Ready the very next day. This is such a good recipe because it’s simple enough to memorize. Pickled Asparagus 1 quart white wine vinegar 3 1⁄2 cups water 3 tablespoons Kosher salt 1 sweet onion, julienned 6 cloves garlic, halved 1 tablespoon red chili flakes 16 spears asparagus Blanch asparagus for 30 seconds in boiling salted water (not the salt or water from the ingredients). Remove and shock in a bowl of ice water. Drain and place, with garlic and onions, in Tupperware, mason jar, whatever you’ll be storing it in. Mix remaining ingredients and bring to boil. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour over asparagus and cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for 2 days. Enjoy! One more note on asparagus: Bacon and asparagus are wonderful together; bacon-wrapped asparagus is an indulgent side dish. And people love hollandaise sauce on asparagus. A few weeks ago, the lightbulb flashed over my head in an inspired moment of awesomeness. Why not make the hollandaise with warm bacon fat instead of drawn butter? Well, immediately

I remembered the lemon, and thought that it might clash, but decided it should work if I used a vinegar reduction for acidity instead of the more popular lemon juice. I can’t recommend this enough, folks. Next time your big family breakfast leaves you with a bit of bacon fat, it’s high time you make the most decadent sauce you’ll ever know to blanket your asparagus. Two of my favorite fruits – strawberries and pineapples – are also coming into season at this point. Although these are delicious as is, as well as in a variety of recipes, and available year-round, they taste best now, and I like to preserve them for the rest of the year. While people can berries as preserves, and you could pickle pineapples, I’m referring to drying. Last year while I was enjoying a nice Ron Popeil infomercial for his food dehydrator (but wait ... if I order now, he’ll throw in a second dehydrator for the cost of shipping!), I realized this was something I should actually buy, so I did. After my jerky phase, and then after chanterelle season, I decided to give fruit a try. You have to keep a close eye on those dehydrators, especially the lower racks, but they work well. Dried strawberry slices are perfect for cereal and scones, and last forever in Ziploc bags. Pineapple slices (1/4-inch worked the best) make a delicious snack, but watch out, the sweetness is concentrated and these are best mixed with nuts and less sweet fruits. Like many of my passing interests, the Ronco dehydrator has sat in the corner gathering dust for the last several months, but like the “rebirth” that is spring, it will appear again to dry out some fruits, and I’ll try drying some vegetables, perhaps asparagus, for soups throughout the year.

Fresh spring asparagus can be grilled, roasted, sauteed or pickled to last throughout the year.

Facts about asparagus From the Michigan Asparagus Advisory Board

• Asparagus is a member of the lily family. • Asparagus spears grow from a crown that is planted about a foot deep in sandy soils. • Under ideal conditions, an asparagus spear can grow 10 inches in a 24-hour period. • Each crown will send spears up for about six to seven weeks during the spring and early summer. • A well-cared-for asparagus planting will generally produce for about 15 years without being replanted. • The larger the diameter, the better the quality. • Asparagus is a nutrient-dense food which in high in folic acid and is a good source of potassium, fiber, vitamin B6, vitamins A and C and thiamin. • Asparagus has no fat, contains no cholesterol and is low in sodium.

CANNON BEACH — The Joel E. Ferris High School Choral Department from Spokane, Wash., will present a concert at 7 p.m. Friday, April 13, as part of its annual spring performance tour. The choral department consists of six ensembles: Symphonic Choir, a 76-member mixed ensemble; Treble Choir, a 35-voice women’s preparatory ensemble; Camerata Jazz, a select vocal jazz ensemble; Canterbury Belles, a 16-voice select women’s chamber choir; Saxon Knights, a select men’s chamber choir; and Show Choir, a blend of song and dance from pop to Broadway musicals. All of the ensembles are under the direction of Barbara Tappa, director of choral music. A graduate of Western Washington University, she has directed junior and senior high school choirs in Moses Lake and Woodinville, Wash; Anaheim, Calif.; and Havelock, N.C. She has also taught elementary music and has been a cantor and choir director at churches in the United States, Japan and Norway. She currently is the eastern liaison on the Board of the Washington American Choral Directors Association and the choral representative on the Executive Board of the Eastern Washington Music Educators Association. The Ferris choral ensembles have been consistently recognized with superior ratings at state and regional festivals. The department presents six to 10 home concerts and numerous other local performances each year in addition to their annual tour. Recent tours have taken them to central and western Washington, British Columbia, Montana and California. The Cannon Beach Chorus, under the direction of John Buehler, will share a portion of the concert with the Ferris ensembles. The concert will be in the Community Presbyterian Church, 132 E. Washington St., and a brief reception for the singers will be held in the fellowship hall immediately following the performance. The concert is free and open to the public. For more Cannon Beach Chorus information, visit www.cannonbeachchorus.org

Cannon Beach Library Explore the connection between land and sea CANNON BEACH — From the westernmost peaks of the Coast Range to the mighty Pacific, the Ecola Creek Watershed is a complete circle of life. Michael Manzulli will be talking about this circular land-sea connection and looking at the local protection and restoration efforts to protect it at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 5, at the Cannon Beach Library. Admission is free. Manzulli is the chair of the Ecola Creek Watershed Council. Born on Staten Island in New York City, home to excellent pizza and the

world’s largest landfill, he left at age 18 in search of bigger waves and to attend John Muir College at the University of California, San Diego, where he received a degree in philosophy. Migrating north, Manzulli received his Juris Doctorate and Environmental Law Certificate from Lewis and Clark College in Portland. He has lived on the North Oregon Coast since the ‘90s and has practiced law in the area for the past 10 years. He is currently a sole practitioner representing and advising nonprofit

organizations throughout the state. This lecture will conclude the fifth successful year of the World of Haystack Rock lecture series. Sponsored by the Friends of Haystack Rock and the Cannon Beach Library, the World of Haystack Rock lecture series is meant to educate, entertain and inspire participants to learn more about marine life. Cannon Beach Library is located at 131 N. Hemlock St. For more information, call (503) 436-1391.
