We spent last weekend at a friend’s fabulous beach house in Cannon Beach Oregon. This is the view from the front patio.
This is a really remarkable house, btw. The view is amazing and the house was built to have a zero energy footprint. There’s more information about this incredible house → HERE ← , if you’re interested. Beware the link is to a pdf file.
I spent most of the weekend painting and drawing. After 2 weeks of cold miserable rain, the skies were clear, the sun shined bright and it was warm. It was also a full moon.
There’s a hidden path down to a beach that’s secluded from the main beach except at low tide. I spent one day drawing and painting there and almost got stranded by the incoming tide.
I had to put in a telephone pole drawing.










Great sketches. So nice of you to invite us along sketch-wise.
what a gorgeous place to stay and lovely free sketches
Hi Vivien and Lindsay. Thanks for visiting.
You applied just enough ink with the right mix of watercolor in the beach paintings, great job.
