In Portland, Mann conducts an ongoing advanced painting critique group. He also offers intensive painting, drawing and printmaking workshops. In Portland he has exhibited at Augen Gallery.

Ken Dixon in The Oregonian wrote: “If there is a particular excellence that contributes disproportionately to the success of Mann’s pictures, it is probably balance…. Basically a classical virtue, it is not the flashiest of fundamentals; but when it is handled like it is in these pictures, it can be something to marvel at.” Mann was on the faculty of PCC Rock Creek from 2006-2015.
