Try, Try Again Oil on Gessobord 5 x 7
I don't know how many times I've tried to capture this favorite family haunt. I'm getting closer but still not satisfied yet. Ebey's Landing, Whidbey Island.

Day 309 Light It Up!
This is from Eric Jacobson's workshop in Gig Harbor. The day started out grey and foggy but as the afternoon progressed the clouds began to break up. At one point, the sun lit up the sailboats across the bay in the marina.

Loving those sailboats. It's one was spotted just off Whidbey Island.

Day 245 Party on the Beach
A party on the beach was a great way to end the 13th annual Playgroup camp out in Astoria. I don't know which contains more sand, my shoes or this painting. :)

Day 244 Fort Stevens
Fort Stevens State Park lies in the very tippy tip of northwest Oregon, where the Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. You can check out old civil war era military bunkers here as well as pretty peak-a-boo water views like this.

Day 243 Sea Bird on the Rocks
This painting is based on a photo I took while beach-combing near Pacific City, Oregon. Ah, the Oregon coast, what an amazing place!

Cape Dissapointment
Although I'm disappointed in how this painting turned out, this is definitely not a dissapointing place to paint. PAWA is having a paint out here this weekend. I wish I could join them! It is certainly worth another visit. Maybe next year.....

Day 241 Dosewallips State Park
We spent the night at Dosewallips State Park on Hood Canal. The more I see of this park, the more I like it. This particular spot is on the water where the tide snakes up little chanels through the sea marsh. If you like to see bald eagles, this is the spot. We saw a mom and dad feeding a youngling. I think Don counted up to twenty eagles passing by!

Day 238 Evening on Penn Cove
Another beautiful evening in downtown Coupeville. The water was a little choppy. Mt Baker in the background, just in case you're wondering.
Day 237 Fishing Hut....again
A loose painting on Skagit Bay of the Swinomish fishing hut with Lone Tree in the background.

Day 236 Double Bluff Park
 |
| Double Bluff Park |
Not only is this long, sandy beach perfect for wading but it's also the world's best off-leash dog park. My dog, Loui, runs and runs and runs. Just remember to bring water for a thirsty dog and a beach towel for sandy paws. Double Bluff beach is located just south of Freeland on Whidbey Island.

Loui the Miniature Poodle
Worlds best photo of my dog, Loui, taken by my daughter Anika. He loves to leap
off our back deck chasing toys. Goofy guy! If I had that much enthusiasm for anything
I could conquer the world!

Day 233 Race Week in Coupeville - Mini
Went into Coupeville for an ice cream cone and found Penn Cove full of sailboats flaunting their bright, colorful spinnakers. Apparently it was race week. How sad I was I didn't know this sooner. After only a few pictures, the battery died on my camera. iPad to the rescue! I was able to get a few more photos but not nearly enough for my liking. Next year, just you wait......
