On A Beach. Ona Beach.

  "The Bridge to Ona Beach"
8 x 10 inches, oil on canvas
$250

After the excellent time I had painting the coast back in July, I was determined to return before the end of summer. And I did, last week!

 
I started out at Ona Beach, a lovely spot just south of Newport, where Beaver Creek meets the sea. Colorful kayakers crossed through my painting several times during the morning, and a group of boisterous kids built a campfire nearby, sending smoke signals across my view. Also there were clouds. Moving clouds. But how could I complain? I was in one of my favorite places on earth, doing the thing I love to do more than anything else. It was bliss - and a great way to warm up for plenty more coastal action.
