Henk Pander (1937-2023) was a Dutch-American artist who spent most of his career living and working in Portland, Oregon. He is most well-known for his visionary large-scale oil paintings of a wide range of subjects from historic events like the September 11th attacks and events of WWII to highly detailed studio still-lifes layered with depth and personal sentiment all painted from life. His estate is now managed by his family in Portland, Oregon. If you are interested in communicating with us about his work, sales inquiries, exhibitions etc., please contact kayla@henkpander.com
