| "Haystack Rock"
"'Haystack Rock' is a dominant landmark on the coast of Oregon at Cannon Beach. Here is shown a view from highway 101 looking north. The mood is quiet and very peaceful on the ocean today."
ARTIST COMMENT This small watercolor was painted on 140# hot-pressed top quality paper. It is another in a series of watercolor paintings of Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach. I visit here frequently to research the area. This scene is from a wayside turn-off along the highway, south of the city. I chose a "C" type composition and created a feeling of distance by focusing on the wind-blown trees on the left hand side. The large looming rock appears quite a distance away, and the headland was muted to show the farthest distance of all. The day is bright and overcast, with dark clouds hovering on the horizon.
