Mark Dahle Portfolios can be read in a few minutes and then enjoyed for a lifetime. Thought-provoking and beautiful, they feature an unusual combination of compelling photographs, brilliant paintings and deceptively simple text. This portfolio includes: a beautiful abstract painting twenty-six outstanding photos from Spokane, WA a story about a gibbon who liked adventures and got one on Big Ocean From the book: Suddenly a tall cliff burst into view, jumping out of the fog. It was cutting through the water, with a wake on each side of it. Little Gibbon looked up. Way up. He gasped. It was not a cliff. It was a ship. It was enormous, and it was coming straight towards him.
