When we moved into our new office building earlier this year, we gave over a portion of the lobby space to a very talented individual: Patti Reiko Osebold. An origami artist from Spokane—and a dear friend—Patti graciously created 31 red-crowned cranes (Grus japonensis) for an installation entitled Flight of the Grus japonensis on Pacific. Throughout east Asia, the cranes are a symbol of longevity, good fortune, and love.
Thanks to Chad Ramsey for his beautiful portrait of the artist.
