The Columbia in Haines
24x30 Oil
At the crack of dawn in the summer of 1978 Steve Black and I arrived in Haines, Alaska ready for the long drive to Fairbanks. I shot photos of the Columbia which I later that year used in painting this painting. While practicing songs on deck on the trip north we met Bill Chace an Air Force officer from Eielson AFB. It was he that helped line us up with our first paying gig at the officer's club a few months later.
I drew this portrait of us for a promo poster that we used while playing at various music gigs around Fairbanks over the next couple of years.
