The Fog Rolls In

Oil on Canvas, 36 x 24, $1296. Purchase at Artistic Portland Gallery. One of my favorite oregon coast beaches is Arcadia Beach in Arch Cape, Oregon, near Cannon Beach. When it is hot inland, the fog is pulled in from the ocean, creating a mist and light that feels otherworldly.

Life and Death
