The Shallows at Cannon Beach

Tag along as we explore a Mecca of sorts along the Oregon Coast

Cannon Beach - 4 days of painting this iconic place. Of course I have learned that Oregon's coast has many other exciting spots to visit and I am sure I will offer workshops at these destinations in the future but this past 2 weeks I spent time with about 24 artist along Cannon Beach and the Columbia Gorge ...Our days were filled with painting watercolor en plein air - and enjoying the local pubs and restaurants along the way. We found time to enjoy a bonfire on the beach, visit the famed Ecola State Park and Some excellent beers in the local bars and pubs - the best way to share our experience is to watch some of the highlights below

I was lucky to be one of attendees for the Cannon Beach portion! It was awesome, I had been to Cannon Beach in 2018 and knew of its magic and beauty….but painting just feet from the base of this majestic rock was surreal - attempting to capture the energy on paper! The feel and mood of this beach town is a one of freedom and a kind of exaltation. We painted on the beach most days, one day at Ecola lookout with a view so fabulous it looked like a postcard. Gary's calm and easy way with the brush, his eye for simplifying and expert knowledge inspired all of us. What an exhilarating and joyful week!! ❤️
