The Clatsop Community College Performing Arts Center’s Estey Opus 1429 organ was originally installed at Dr. John Sellwood’s home, in what is now Portland’s Sellwood neighborhood. A wind instrument with a pitch range of 32 to 8,000 hertz, the organ is powered by a blower in the bottom level of the PAC. It produces air, sending it to the wind chests below more than 1,000 pipes of varying lengths and diameters crowding two of the PAC’s upper chambers above the main stage.

Some venues open earlier or later, so you can make a day of it.

The locations are listed here in the order they appear on the art walk map, or just walk around downtown and look for the art walk signs. Maps are available from participating merchants, the Seaside Chamber of Commerce at 7 N. Roosevelt Drive (U.S. Highway 101) or at www.seasidechamber.com

Fairweather House and Garden 612 Broadway The November Seaside Art Walk at Fairweather House and Garden is titled, “Bird and Beyond” and features a solo exhibition from Denise Joy McFadden, a Northwest artist.

McFadden’s body of work focuses on the migration season through watercolors. Her art is filled with flight and grace, telling the story of flyways in an abstract and unconventional style.

McFadden enjoys the spontaneity as

well as the risks encountered with watercolor. For her, creating a watercolor comes from watching the colors mingle, drip and separate in unexpected ways. She is a member of the Watercolor Society, Watercolor West and the National Watercolor Society.

Also enjoy a lecture about the marvels of bird migration by Neal Maine, naturalist and photographer. Shirley Yates, a Seaside Chamber Ambassador, will provide music.

Yummy Wine Bar & Bistro 831 Broadway The Gallery @ Yummy Wine Bar & Bistro shows “Glitter!” a collection of new work by Seaside native Jorjett Strumme.

Strumme worked in Hollywood with award-winning costume designers creating costumes for Hollywood legends like Barbara Stanwyck, Bette Davis and more.

Then, for 10 years she traveled the world as Elizabeth Taylor’s personal assistant and stylist. Inspired by her career, Strumme has created a blend of Hollywood nostalgia and a love of classic movies in “Glitter!” She presents a collection of masks, which are created to be displayed as art or worn, like the costumes she created in Hollywood. “I love all things that glitter and sparkle. With a background in costume design, a mask is the perfect canvas for my art form,” she says. “I can

my love of art full circle, from viewer to artist,” she says. Gran-Davis’ love of art began in third grade. She made most of her own clothes from sixth grade through high school graduation.

As the years passed, her love of color and creating didn’t wane, though a full-

time career, family and exchange students seemed to fill every minute. After a long career in purchasing, management, and county government in California, Gran-Davis and her husband retired to Astoria 14 years ago.

Since then, she took many art classes and workshops. Now a member of TEAA and the Palette Puddlers, Gran-Davis has worked in watercolors, acrylic, oil, colored pencil and lino-cut. “Each media brings its own life to the canvas. My first love, though, is still working with oils,” she says.

This month’s gallery show also features other members of TEAA and includes a wide variety of fine art offerings. There is also a gift shop with jewelry, prints and cards. The November show featuring Gran-Davis’ work will run through Nov. 30.

The exhibit is inspired by the ubiquitous crow and the deciduous leaf, both deeply connected to Waisanen’s Minnesota childhood.

Left: Michelle Kaptur has been blowing glass since 1975. After 10 years learning the basics of glass blowing, she went on to paint for several years. “Painting is where I put together all the composition, color and design stuff that I learned about in school. When I came back to glass I had a much stronger sense of the design choices I wanted to make and why,� she says. You can view her work, meet the Bend-based artist and see glassblowing demos at IceFire Glassworks during the festival.

Clockwise from above: Janis Ellison has worked in New Mexico, and in 2006 she moved to southern Oregon, where the pristine area provides endless inspiration. Her love of nature and the outdoors is a natural companion to her passion for plein air painting. She will conduct a pastel demo at Haystack Gallery from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2; she will also appear at the gallery for light morning refreshments Sunday.

Spruce St. “Mussel Colony” by Christopher Burkett. An Oregon native, Burkett has lectured around the world about fine art photography; this year he was part of the Portland Art Museum’s Photography Council’s lecture series. He is showing work at Northwest By Northwest Gallery during the Stormy Weather Arts Festival and will give a talk on fine art color landscape photography at 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2. The gallery will feature an extensive exhibition through Jan. 1, 2014.

“Celtic Girl,” a beaded mosaic by Zemula Fleming, is one of three pieces that will be raffled off in the CBAA’s Stormy Weather Arts Festival Raffle at the Cannon Beach Gallery on Saturday, Nov. 2. Raffle tickets will be on sale leading up to the event at the Cannon Beach Gallery for $5 each or $20 for five. The raffle will take place at 7:30 p.m. during the artist reception, which is from 5 to 8 p.m.

Jean-Marie Chapman, left, stands beside “Daydreaming,” a portrait she unveiled during the Cannon Beach Spring Unveiling in May. Chapman returns as the Cannon Beach Hotel’s artist in residence for the Stormy Weather Arts Festival and will conduct daily painting demos. With her is guitarist Mark Hamre, who will perform at Chapman’s artist reception from 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2 at the Cannon Beach Hotel.

Sharon Amber draws inspiration for her highly original fine jewelry from nature. She has a passion for local materials and ancient jewelry methods such as cloisonné and repousse. Her precious metal treasures are set with local “gems,” including carved dense black basalt pebbles, transformed into mermaids, seascapes, and faces bedecked with exotic colored stones. See the “Mythrial” and “Sea & Sand” collections at Jewelry by Sharon Amber during the festival.

“In the Air,” a watercolor by Scott C. Johnson, who is showing new work at White Bird Gallery during the festival. Johnson works mostly in watercolor, and the soft washes of his sensual skies are influenced by Japanese techniques while the refined line work in the foreground trees and grasses reference Persian miniature painting. Johnson’s rich and moody palette is built up through transparent layers of smooth brushwork that yield a surface depth difficult to achieve through traditional watercolor techniques. He will paint Friday at the Quick Draw and Auction; he will also demonstrate tecniques at White Bird Gallery from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 to 3 p.m. on Saturday Nov. 2.

The Lost Roo

Left: The Mouth found the evening’s special, beef medallions in a Guinness gravy with garlic mashed potatoes, to be executed well but to fall short of the mark.

Mouth finds tremendous mass-market appeal in a restaurant that fills an empty niche on the coast

I

I have been at my post as the Mouth for nearly a year now, and I can honestly say that my experiences have caused me to approach dining out in a different way. Prior to becoming the Mouth, for example, I might not have noticed that the Long Beach Peninsula seems to have the greatest concentration of restaurants on a relatively small patch of coastline. It seems that from Seaview through Long Beach there is a restaurant on nearly every block.

The other interesting thing is that two of the three ¿ve-star reviews I¶ve written have come from the Washington side of the river, along with one of my three one-star reviews. On the peninsula, for many years, there have been a lot of wonderful, highend restaurants and a lot of downright dives I¶d rather not go into.

There is a smattering of ethnic food, a pizza parlor, and a great bakery – but for a long time, what the peninsula was lacking was a middle-of-theroad dining establishment that was clean, inviting, with decent food, that could accommodate children, large crowds or the Sunday football gang. The Lost Roo is exactly that, and that¶s okay.

The ample menu at “The Roo” seems a sort of collection of popular dishes from across the U.S., and I say this not as an insult but as a testament to being keyed in to what appeals to the masses. I began a recent visit to The Roo with a seared ahi tuna appetizer and was quite

Below: The steak salad stands out with its well-balanced flavors.

pleasantly surprised by its quality: seared with a sesame crust on the outside but red and tender on the inside, and, with a cucumber salad with wasabi-soy dressing, the dish rivaled local sushi establishments in terms of Àavor and presentation.

Up next: a cup of ¿sherman¶s chowder, with clams, cod and salmon. This is a nice departure from the standard clam chowder seen all over the coast, which I sometimes think comes out of a tap like water or pop. A spritz of sherry balances the Àavors of the various seafoods perfectly.

A bacon, bleu cheese and barbecue burger was large and impressive but proved to be one too many Àavors in a burger for my liking. The bacon and bleu cheese would have been ample on their own, or just the barbecue sauce on its own, but I found the combination of all three too tangy and rich and just downright messy.

The burger itself was Àavorful and juicy, but a combination of the juices and the barbecue sauce made the bottom bun mushy. The French fries were average in quality, although I liked

their thinner, shoestring shape.

A standout of the evening was a steak salad with mixed greens and cabbage, smoked bleu cheese dressing, grilled steak, fresh avocado, tomatoes, red onions, bleu cheese crumbles and crispy tortillas strips. All the Àavors of the salad were well balanced and not in competition with one another; even the crispy tortilla strips had their place, providing a nice light crunch to a very savory salad.

The evening¶s special of beef medallions in a Guinness gravy, served with garlic mashed potatoes, was executed well but fell short of the mark for me. The medallions were cooked perfectly medium as I requested but had little Àavor; even a coating of salt and pepper would have helped. The Guinness gravy, though, was mellow, almost caramel-like, and rich; it helped the medallions tremendously. The garlic mashed potatoes were ruggedly smashed rather

than being entirely smooth which I think ¿ts the spirit of the dish.

Finally, I sampled a plate of ¿sh tacos with tempura fried Alaskan cod on corn tortillas with spicy-sweet cabbage, green onion, cilantro, chili lime sour cream, and pineapple salsa.

All of the sides, such as the spicy-sweet cabbage and pineapple salsa, were well prepared and tasty, but the cod was relatively Àavorless.

I don¶t think the crispy breading of the cod helped the dish. If I were to offer a suggestion, I might ditch the breading in favor of marinated and seared ¿sh.

When the Lost Roo opened in , I¶m not so sure that what it was offering was extremely inspired, as much as it was exactly what the peninsula was missing. The food is maybe a little average and unoriginal, but the concept behind it is brilliant. The Lost Roo has tremendous mass-market appeal; you could box it up and sell it as a chain in any big city with no problem.

It is Outback Steakhouse-like in atmosphere, can host large crowds, accommodates noisy children like mine nicely, and with several Àat-screen televisions and a large bar area, is a natural choice for a sports-watching crowd.

It might not be the French Laundry, but on the other hand, the Lost Roo knows its demographic, and it serves that demographic Àawlessly.

It¶s reliably average to above-average food, for a decent price, in a nice space, with good service – and what¶s not to like about that"

mouth OF THE COLUMBIA COAST WEEKEND’S LOCAL RESTAURANT REVIEW Story and photos by THE MOUTH OF THE COLUMBIA • mouth@coastweekend.com

HOURS: Open seven days a week from 11:30 a.m. to close.

PRICE: Prices hover around the $11 mark for burgers, $13 for sandwiches; other entrées start at $13 and top out at $25. Most of the prices are reasonable given the quality, but I think entrée prices upwards of $20 are too high.

SERVICE: Our service was fast, friendly and accommodating. The staff seem helpful to one another and share a camaraderie that creates a warm atmosphere.

ATMOSPHERE: The Lost Roo has a big-city chain restaurant feel in a small town, which fills an empty niche. The interior feels similar to an Outback Steakhouse, with kangaroos, Guinness ads and surf boards.

ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There are some nice dinner-sized salads, including a cranberry bistro salad and a Caesar. The menu may include other vegetarian items depending on the season.

DRINKS: A full bar, wine, beer (including Roo signature brews), soft drinks, coffee and tea.

Video contest promotes work safety

Go on a bird survey before the year’s end

Oregon teens can win cash prizes, money for their schools

See the diverse birds that use Fort Stevens State Park

Students have used original music, special effects, and offbeat characters to promote young worker safety and health. The annual “Speak up. Work safe” video contest is now open to teens across Oregon. The top three entries will take home cash prizes ranging from $300 to $500, and students will earn a matching amount for their school.

“There are fun ways to get teens thinking about safety on the job,” said Austin Coburn, the 2013 contest winner. “I created a safety message around the theme of a musical, and that made it memorable and entertaining.”

The contest is designed to increase awareness about safety on the job for young people. Students must create a 90-second or less video with the overall theme

HAMMOND — Come join Fort Stevens State Park on its weekly bird surveys and see some of the amazing variety of birds in the local area. The surveys will monitor the bird species that use the park from season to season, and will be conducted weekly for an entire year.

See two watery exhibits RiverSea Gallery lives up to its name

ASTORIA — This November, RiverSea Gallery in Astoria presents two exhibitions inspired by water. “Waterlands� is an homage to the transition between land and sea, and the show features watercolors and sculpture by John Stahl accompanied by four artists working in other mediums: Jan Fowler, printmaking; John Maher, photography; and Mark and Julia Hamilton, encaustic painting.

A separate show in the galOHU\œV $OFRYH ³5HÀHFWLRQV RQ Water,� features new photographs

by David Lee Myers. Both exhibitions open Saturday, November 2, with a reception from 5 to 8 p.m. The artists will give short presentations about their work, and all are invited for an evening of art, refreshments and conversation. Artwork will remain on display through Dec. 3.

Stahl is a noted Oregon artist who works in varied mediums from his home studio overlooking Netarts Bay. For this show, he presents a series of contemplative watercolors that use a limited palette to convey the many moods of the estuaries and headlands at the ocean’s edge.

These paintings depict hills draped with mist, the dazzle of light on water and swathes of verdant forest cloaked in soft gray. Examples of the artist’s sculpture will also be featured.

Mark and Julia Hamilton share studio space in McMinnville, where they each create work in encaustic, evoking watery landscapes in layers of pigmented beeswax.

JAN BONO

Local author Jan Bono is a full-time writer living on the Long Beach Peninsula.

22 | October 31, 2013 | coastweekend.com

Where were you born and raised?

I am a native Washingtonian, born in Seattle, in a hospital which no longer exists, and raised in Lynnwood, exactly 20 miles north of the Space Needle.

Where do you live now?

The Long Beach Peninsula has been my home for an amazing 36 years.

What sparked your interest in writing?

When I was 9, my cousin and I were pen pals. We alternated writing the next chapter to an ongoing story for many months. I decided then to become a teacher, writer, astronaut and President.

My eyesight eliminated the space program, and I (wisely) changed my mind about entering politics, but I’ve happily enjoyed careers in both teaching and writing.

How did you become an author?

I have always loved telling stories, especially funny true tales. Ideas are everywhere, and writing is the best way to preserve and share them with a wider audience. Attending numerous writers’ groups, conferences and workshops helped me hone my skills.

In 2006 you left a 30year career in teaching

6

$

to become a full-time author. Was that a big change?

I’d been easing into the transition for years. I wrote a humorous personal experience column for the Chinook Observer for more than a decade, compiled written anecdotes about some of my students and completed two poetry collections before my official “retirement.”

You write in a variety of genres: short stories, one-act plays, poetry and more. Why do you think you’re attracted to these different forms?

I started out with small, focused, single-subject, entertaining vignettes – I like being able to get straight to the core, or essence, or moral, or punchline. I’ve had 21 such stories published in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series in the last four years, so I must be doing something right!

Tell me a little about your two as-yet-unpublished mystery novels.

The Sylvia Avery Mystery Series takes place on the barely fictionalized southwest Washington coast.

It’s a cozy mystery series, which means the story happens in a small town with quirky characters and contains no graphic violence. My main character is retired and in her mid-50s.

Think “Murder, She Wrote,” but with lots more humor.

Where can people find your books?

We are now entering the holiday bazaar season, and every weekend I’ll be selling my books at different locations. See my website for specifics: www.JanBonoBooks.com. Or order my books online, or heck, I’d love to meet readers in a local coffee shop and save them the postage. For all ebook formats, visit www. smashwords.com What do you do when you’re not writing?

I’m often either thinking

about writing, or traveling or both! It’s great to have a portable career that I have the option of taking everywhere with me. I also copyedit for other writers, helping them get their own books published.

What is something you like about living in the Columbia-Pacific?

What’s not to like about God’s Country? Not too hot, not too cold, and filled with a plethora of interesting people. Truly a slice of heaven on earth. When I arrived in 1977, I knew this beautiful place was the right place for me.
