Over the years, I have enjoyed many weekends at Otter Rock, where you can watch surfers at Beverly Beach or find agates and star fish at low tide near the Devil’s Punchbowl.

I started three paintings there last weekend; one I finished. I forgot to bring cerulean blue (again) so I painted the ocean without it. Needless to say, they will get finished at home (can’t have ocean without blue).

Otter Rock Retreat 1 is of the old front door to a friend’s cottage. I visited at just the right time; the garden was in full bloom. I mostly finished this one and hung it in the show I have displayed at the Corvallis Montessori School this summer.
