Lietta’s oil paintings inspired by life in Bay Center
Lietta, resident oil painter in our home in Bay Center, to husband, Arthur, resident author in our home in Bay Center, we carve out our ‘creative spaces’ within our home – in what we liken to our very own . Beach House. Replicating experiences we have shared getting away from the city for weekend or vacations by renting house on the beach at Cape Kiwanda in Oregon, we fondly refer to our home as our Beach House.
Adding some photos of oil paintings Lietta has created inspired by our life in this fishing village.

Looking at the oils that you painted I am impressed with your capture of the enviroment you live in. One can almost feel as though they are there.

I’ve been reading your posts recently and have come to identify with many of your concerns… I live in Seattle and too wish to one day settle into Willapa. Your posts shed some light on the current events.
I also must compliment you on capturing some beautiful scenery.. the color does really come through. For me, your work is so refreshing from so many of the darker oils I have seen in the past.
truly blessed
thanks you
