Rialto Beach

This is a small oil pastel on textured gesso board. Our daughter came to visit for a few days, so we thought it would be fun to take a 2 day trip around the Olympic Peninsular. The first day was continual rain but the second day was dry and windy. We went to one of our favorite beaches on the coast, Rialto Beach, and while the 'young' walked the 'old' sat in the shelter of a huge log. For me, the above painting does give the 'flavor' of the day but the accompanying drawings were too hopeless to print.
