Gary Hanifan likes to joke that the massive painting of snow-capped Mt. Hood hanging in the living room of his renovated and expanded 1920 Craftsman in Lake Oswego, Oregon is actually a mirror. After all, the artwork faces a window through which the real Mt. Hood can be seen. But the wood painting, its grains and patina showing through as beautiful as the mountain image itself, says a lot about the love affair Hanifan and his wife, Melissa, have with finding vintage art, furniture, and architecture.
“I do enjoy the hunt,” says Gary, who first saw the Mt. Hood painting hanging in a saloon many years ago and found it again on one of his regular sojourns through vintage shops, estate sales, and even house deconstructions. If that was serendipitous, so too was running across the old clock that now sits on the fireplace mantel. The Hanifans bought it from a neighbor’s garage sale not knowing it had once sat in the same spot.
