Life in Bay Center on Willapa Bay

Living in a maritime fishing village in Southwest Washington state on Willapa Bay

Lietta’s oil paintings inspired by life in Bay Center

three in a rowLietta, 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.
