Description

Late afternoon reflects a lighted path from the tidal pool to the sea. Beach Reflections is a photographic image. This wonderful location is near the small Oregon beach town of Yachats on the Oregon Coast. The forested cliffs meet the sea here in tumultuous union at Devil’s Churn, especially during the November storm track. I was looking for images to paint and came upon this serene scene.
The beach is the shoreline at the edge of a body of water. The landform of the beach is often composed of loose particles like sand, pebbles, shells and shell fragments, the result of the endless deposit and scouring actions of wave and current.
Creating portals of light, love, joy, beauty, compassion, hope and gratitude is my lifelong passion and gift for the earth, hence the name of my art business, For the Earth. My mother painted in oils when I was young and encouraged my own drawing, painting and handcrafting in all forms. My father, the photographer, gave me my first camera at age 8. As a result of these loving influences, I am a lifelong student of both mediums. I am grateful to my wonderful Pacific NW painter teachers, Stan Capon and Edi Olson, for training my eye and technique. I hope you will enjoy this image as much as I enjoyed its creation.
