Its name is mud

The Buccaneer Rampage Mud Obstacle Race will splash down in Newport on Saturday, Aug. 23, marking the second year for the slippery event. Mike Cavanaugh, sports coordinator for Newport Parks and Recreation Department said the city is proud to host the rampage, which is part of a growing trend of obstacle course races across the nation. “This race is designed to be fun and challenging while appealing to a wide range of participants. It’s not a typical 5K race,” he said. “It will be more of an adventure for everyone participating.” The course features a number of challenging obstacles that are spread over muddy, steep terrain, including wall climbs and mud crawls. This year’s Buccaneer Rampage will begin at 11 am on Aug. 23 at Newport Municipal Airport and run until 4 pm. Participants must be at least 15 years of age. Registration is $35 in advance, rising to $45 on the day of the race, Registration stays open until 10 minutes before the start of the race to accommodate those last-minute, impulsive mud-seekers. All participants receive an event T-shirt and medal for crossing the ﬁnish line. “If you don’t want to race, come out and cheer the racers on,” Cavanaugh said. “Spectating is free and it’s fun to watch everyone get dirty!” A disc jockey will play music throughout the day and food vendors and a beer garden will be available. Prizes will be on oﬀer for the best male and female pirate costume. All proceeds from the event go toward the youth scholarship program at the Newport Recreation Center, which allows children from economically disadvantaged households to participate in recreation programs. To register, go to www.buccaneerrampage. com. Newport Parks and Recreation is also in need of volunteers for this event. To help out, email M.Cavanaugh@NewportOregon.gov or call 541-574-5453.

Coho-ho

Filleting the catch at the dock

Christmas comes early as the coast sees epic salmon run

Story & photos by Patrick Alexander Oregon Coast TODAY

’d seen the photos coming in all week. Happy-looking anglers clutching gargantuan coho salmon; sleeves rolled up as they stood on the dock, basking in glory — and sunshine. With the coast’s best coho run in a decade coinciding with the sunniest summer in years, this week’s front page looked like a no-brainer. But as fate would have it, my fishing trip from Depoe Bay Harbor was to take place on the one wet and wild day of an otherwise sundrenched week. As my five fellow anglers and I headed out at 6 am through driving rain, bouncing from wave to wave, I realized the fish gods were going to make me pay for the privilege of

Mike Neeley gets a high five from Captain Loren Goddard after landing the largest fish of the trip — an 18-pound chinook

catching salmon today. Coming to a stop about a half mile offshore, we listened as skipper Loren Goddard outlined the procedures for making sure we didn’t get our lines tangled once we started trying to reel our catch aboard. As the deck rolled and swayed beneath me, I was reminded that the last time I took a trip aboard Goddard’s boat, I gave as much to the sea as I took. This time, I had been sure to take my motion sickness pills before heading out but still, I kept my eyes fixed on the horizon to try and keep my stomach in check. Fortunately, there was no time to dwell on my internal gurglings. Within minutes of the lines being in the water, one of the rods started jerking away and the boat resounded with cries of “fish on!” Less than a minute later, our first coho was in the boat and dispatched with what Goddard refers to as “a mild sedative” — a short, sharp rap on the head with a gaff hook. For the rest of the morning, fish was seldom off. No sooner had one coho been brought aboard than another was on the line. The rain eased off and radio blasted out a little rock music that matched the rhythm of the rolling waves. It was not long before I got my first bite, reeling in what turned out

to be a sea bass. A nice fish and a keeper, Captain Loren assured me — but not what I came for. The next bite was the charm, and a good-sized coho soon went to join the sea bass in the cooler. By this point, a couple of my fellow anglers had already reached their daily limit of two salmon and it started to look like we would wrap this trip up long before the scheduled end time of 11 am. My second salmon was a chinook, a fish that, thanks to size restrictions, could live to fight another day if less than 24-inches long. As Captain Loren fetched his tape measure, I urged the little fellow to stretch out to his full length. The tale of the tape was in my favor and I was done for the day. Another few catches later and all six of us had hit our limits, with 12 salmon in the cooler along with the rogue sea bass. Waving goodbye to the other charter boats, we headed for port and were back on the dock by 9 am. It was still raining in Depoe Bay, but nothing could dampen our spirits as we took our catches to be filleted and vacuum packed for the trip home. “This whole coho thing is the best thing to happen to this coast in a long time,” said Dorinda Goddard, Captain Loren’s wife and co-owner at Dockside Charters. “As far as I

can tell, every charter boat in this county has been packed full. It’s been such a shot in the arm for the coast.” She said the epic coho run has brought in anglers from Idaho, Utah, the East Coast and even a whole family from Arizona who booked three days of fishing, came in a van and brought their freezer with them. When it come to cooking up the catch, Dorinda said, the coho and chinook offer different flavors. While the oilier, stronger-tasting chinook is ideal for smoking, the more delicately flavored coho lends itself to being poached. “In this day and age,” she said, “when you get to fish for salmon, any of it’s good.” Dockside Charters is one of many Central Coast charter operators who offer salmon fishing trips. They can be reached at 541-765-2545.

Fin, while it lasts During Oregon’s select season, anglers are allowed to take home up to two salmon, either chinook of at least two feet in length or hatchery-raised coho, distinguishable by a clipped adipose fin near the tail. Due to this year’s strong coho run, fishery regulators have issued a quota putting 80,000 salmon up for grabs during the select season, which is expected to end Aug. 10. Anglers will get another chance come Aug. 30, when the salmon season will reopen for its non-select phase, allowing fishers to keep the first two salmon they catch, clipped or not, as long as they meet the size limits.

one man’s beach

Mark my words proposed smoking ban is just the beginning

n July 25, Oregon Parks and Recreation Dept (ORPD) issued a press release asking for public comments on a proposed rule to restrict smoking of tobacco products on Oregon beaches. Part of the release read: “Citing environmental issues as a primary concern — plastic cigarette butts can persist for years, even in the harsh beach environment — Oregon State Parks and Recreation Commission approved a staff request to consider a smoking rule for the ocean shore.” The pubic has until August 29 to comment. I offer my commentary here, but want to preface my remarks by declaring my unique qualifications to render an opinion. 1) I have rambled down the state’s ocean beaches approximately 10,000 times since moving to the Oregon Coast in 1997; 2) I have visited every county, state and federal beach wayside, park or recreational area on the Oregon Coast; 3) I have written more published words in celebration and defense of Oregon’s unprecedented legacy of publicly-owned beaches than anyone in history (about a half million and still counting); 4) I do not smoke; 5) I am not some moronic anti-government libertarian who believes that government shouldn’t have any role in promoting good health and protecting the environment.

OPRD: Mark my words, this is just the beginning of the Southern Californication, Sanitization and

Babysitting of Oregon’s ocean beaches. Tobacco products first, then: no campfires (fire hazard); no Frisbees (collision possibility); no kites (visual pollution); no driftwood fort building (too dangerous); no dogs (feces and risk of attacks); no alcohol (potential for mayhem); no horses: no trysts in the dunes; no weddings without costly permits; The Moda-sponsored Oswald West State Park; more law enforcement to uphold the ban; additional fees, fees, fees. I do not deny that cigarette butts on the beach present a substantive ecological problem, although in 17 years of living here I have never seen a single person discard a cigarette butt on a beach. (While I see drivers and boaters toss butts out their windows and overboard all the time.) Moreover, I think in all that time, I’ve maybe seen a couple people actually smoke (tobacco) on the beach. This proposed ban does nothing to address the reality of the problem that most butts appearing on the beaches have most likely washed ashore. It also begs the question: if you want cigarette butts off the beach, why not put out some trash receptacles at the bigger parks and popular waysides? I realize that some people will use them to dump home trash, but they would help keep our beaches clean of a lot more litter than just cigarette butts. I understand the need to ban smoking in state park campground areas where many campers are clustered together like so much cordwood and support this position, just as I supported the ban

of smoking in bars and restaurants enacted a few years ago. But this proposed ban is a bureaucratic overreach and completely unnecessary. Please drop the proposal and get on with the real job of protecting our sacred public beaches from “the grasping wastrels of the land,” as former Governor Tom McCall so accurately and memorably described those who want to privatize, riprap and develop this state’s greatest cultural asset.

Helen Young Frost

The Oregon Coastal Quilters Guild’s annual Quilts By the Sea show will get underway this Friday, Aug. 1, in Newport, with nationally acclaimed quilt author Helen Young Frost judging the entries. Frost, who is from Tucson, Arizona, has written several bestselling books on traditional quilt patterns such as the nine-patch and lone star quilt designs. Her most recent book, co-authored with her mother, Blanche Young, is “All-Star Quilts: Ten Strip-Pieced Lone Star Sparklers.” She was also instrumental in organizing the Arizona quilt heritage project, leading to the publication of “Grand Endeavors: Vintage Arizona Quilts and Their Makers,” which she co-authored with Pam Knight Stevenson.

Frost has served as quilt judge for various organizations, including the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas, the Vermont Quilt Festival and the California State Fair. This year’s Quilts By The Sea event will feature about 300 quilts, including the 2014 guild challenge, “Wonderfully Wicked Witches.” There will also be displays of antique quilts; quilts made by Waldport High School home-economics students; some quilts made for donations to Quilts of Valor; and pieces made by this year’s featured quilter, Betty Dobbs Ballhorn of Siletz. Tillamook’s Latimer Textile Center will bring a number of quilts for the popular bed-turning event that will take place twice each day during the show.

The winning ticket for the 2014 raﬄe quilt, “Oregon Lights in the Storm,” will be drawn the afternoon of August 2. The show will also feature a vendor mall, members’ boutique, displays of guild activities, treasure hunts for both children and adults, a children’s corner and a lunchroom catered by the Seal Rock Diner. A two-day silent auction of small quilts will help raise funds for the nonproﬁt Bright Horizons Therapeutic Riding Center. The show will run from 10 am to 6 pm on Friday, Aug. 1, and 9 am to 4 pm on Saturday, Aug. 2, at the Newport Recreation Center, 225 Avery Street. Admission is $5.

All the park’s a stage... There’s something about parks that brings out people’s Shakespearean tendencies. Whether it’s Central Park in New York or Hyde Park in London, those open, green spaces will, come midsummer, likely be packed with soliloquies, tragedies and comedies of errors. And Nehalem Bay State Park is no exception, proudly presenting its 2014 Shakespeare in the Park event this weekend, with performances of “Henry IV, Part 1” and “The Taming of the Shrew.” The plays are presented by Portland’s Original

Practice Shakespeare Festival, which uses the performance techniques of Shakespeare’s own time: limited rehearsals; an onstage prompter; fastpaced, energetic acting; and lots of audience interaction. At 7 pm on Friday, Aug. 1, the group will present “Henry IV, Part 1,” a play that follows the strained relationship between King Henry IV and his son Prince Harry while rebellion is brewing in the North. The play alternates between these two plot strands until they come together in a dramatic battle at the end. On Saturday, Aug. 2, again at 7 pm, the players

will present “The Taming of the Shrew,” a comedy depicting the courtship of the gallivanting Petruchio and the bad-tempered Katherina. Meanwhile, a subplot features a competition between the suitors of Katherina’s more desirable sister, Bianca. Performances are located at the outdoor amphitheater. Picnics and beverages are welcome but parking spaces are at a premium. Admission to both plays is free, but a $5 day use fee or annual pass is required for parking. Questions? Call 503-3685943.

Beam me up —

to Toledo Toledo artists will celebrate the coast’s sunniest summer for years at the August First Weekend event, displaying works inspired by the theme “Sunbeams.” Guests will be able to explore galleries and studios throughout Toledo on Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 2 and 3, as well as the studio of featured artist Caroll Loomis, located just outside town. The long-time artist and Lincoln County native will be showing some of the first baskets she created in her earlier career as a weaver, as well as more recent gourds and wax paintings. Loomis’ studio, located seven miles east of Toledo will be open from 11 am to 5 pm both days, with a free demonstration at 1 pm each day. From Highway 20 near the 15mile marker, turn onto Sam’s Creek Road and take the first driveway on the left. Within Toledo itself, oil painter Michael Gibbons will be displaying “Up with the Chickens,” an earlymorning scene that required the artist to wait in darkness with the guard dogs at Rock Corral Ranch in Tumacacori, Arizona, for the first sun of the day to touch the mountain range. Gibbons’ Signature Gallery is located at 140 NE Alder Street and will be open from 11 am to 5 pm both days, with complimentary Oregon wines and cheese on offer. Nearby, fellow oil painter Ivan Kelly will be displaying works including a new depiction of a mule deer buck highlighted by the sun as he jumps a fence in the

FISH TALES

The intricate and playful fish drawings of Lincoln City artist Ben Soeby are the subject of a new show at the Newport Visual Arts Center, which opens with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, Aug. 1. “Fresh Fish… And the Other Side of the Story,” hosted by Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, showcases Soeby’s sculptural multimedia pieces, created with Prismacolor colored pencil patterns and drawings on reclaimed wood. Many of the pieces are composed of dense patterns of precisely placed fish figures in boxes or cases. In some pieces, playful sardine can lids are screwed open to reveal more tiny fish wooden tiles. Soeby’s attraction to fish as an artistic subject dates back to a youth spent fishing, skateboarding and creating art in Lincoln City. “Fishing saved my life,” he said, adding that the activity gave him “an attachment to the moment,” as well as meaningful perspective on nature and life. After high school in Taft, Soeby graduated from Oregon State University in 1994 with a bachelor’s degree in fine art, with emphasis on sculpture. He went on to study art in Europe as an independent-study exchange student. Soeby also found local inspiration in the form of the fish and bird drawings, ceramics and sculptures of Sitka Center co-founder Frank Boyden; as well as the work of Newport’s Rick Bartow. In 1990s, Soeby traveled to Samoa and also moved to the Chiapas area of Mexico during the Zapatista uprising, where he created a series of tiny books and other work. In 1999, he moved back to the Central Oregon Coast and began a 12-year career with ODFW on salmon-related projects. Following a fall from a ladder in January 2012, Soeby suffered a horrific injury to his left ankle and foot as well as breaking a bone in his left hand. During his rehabilitation, he taught himself to write, draw and paint with his right hand. Later that year, he reaffirmed his commitment to art with a successful show at the Lincoln City Cultural Center. “I was so thankful once I was able to get up and around” he said. “Here I was, this athlete, former skateboarder, very physically active — and again, fishing and being on this river that I love [the Siletz] has meant the world to me.” The “Fresh Fish” show will be on display through Sept. 27 in Upstairs Gallery at the center, 777 NW Beach Drive, available to view noon to 4 pm Tuesday through Saturday. For more information, call 541-265-6569 or email vac@ coastarts.org.

PERPETUA-L

MOTION Mountain biking at Cape Perpetua is the wheel deal Story & photos by Nancy Steinberg

For the TODAY

hysics works for mountain biking just as well as it does in the rest of the world. What goes up must come down. This was my mantra as I climbed, and climbed, and climbed up the Forest Service road at Cape Perpetua on my bike. I had hiked here many times, but never ridden, so I was eager to see what the gorgeous, old-growth coastal forest would be like on wheels rather than feet. But ﬁrst, the ascent — about 1,800 feet of gradual, uphill climbing. My companions and I had started at the Cummins Creek trailhead a little south of the Cape Perpetua Scenic Area Visitors

Center, about a quarter mile oﬀ Highway 101, where no fee or pass is required to park. Mountain bikes are allowed on the Cummins Creek loop, accessible right from our parked cars, but the climb from here is very diﬃcult — it’s better to

climb on the road rather than the trail and then descend through the forest to the trailhead. (One friend, probably the smartest among us, drove up to the top and joined us for the downhill only. Why didn’t I think of that?)

We began by biking north on a short stretch of Highway 101, turning off at the road that accesses the tippy-top of the cape, and started to climb. About a half-mile up, the road splits; we took US Forest Service Road 55, which continues generally east. We all took our own pace and spread out for the climb, with me in my typical caboose position. My companions soon out of sight, I plugged away, riding the gradual but steady incline, some of it paved and some gravel, for about an hour. It’s a gorgeous stretch, quiet as soon as we got away from the highway and warm as we escaped the coastal damp. Hummingbirds darted across the road from foxglove to foxglove. One drawback to being the last in line: I missed the two owls the faster bikers flushed from the trees as they neared the summit. The view from the top was expansive and breathtaking. From that height we could see the entire Yachats River Valley and a peek of the ocean to the west. We headed into the woods from the small gravel parking area that serves as the Cooks Ridge trailhead. When I was a hiker, this path would have simply been called a trail. As a mountain biker, now it’s known as “single track,” a narrow path about the width of the bike. The first section was fairly technical — steep, twisty and covered in roots — and although almost all of my companions rode it, I walked a section at the beginning, hopping on my bike when it looked a little easier here and there. When the grade eased off a little, just a short way in, I saddled up and rode most of the rest of the way down. We followed the Cummins Creek Trail, first through a meadow with rocky terrain under the wheels; and then through spectacular coastal

forest, past towering Douglas fir. In spots, the trail was hemmed in by meadows of oxalis and salal. Birds flitted just out of sight around us. The trail is criss-crossed by roots for more than the first half, making for some challenging spots, but it is ridable. More skilled riders can frequently catch some air. One thing that I love about riding in coastal forests like this one is the unique sound that a bike tire makes when riding over dry needle duff, kind of a crackling shoosh, which provided the soundtrack for much of this ride. Closer to the end, the trail widens and follows a series of flowing switchbacks, which we rode with abandon. It was over much too soon. We emerged back at the trailhead about two hours after we started, already planning our next trip here. The total distance we rode was about 10 miles. My best mountain biking buddy, Cheryl, rode the same route in October and was surprised at how much easier and more enjoyable it was this time, as the trail was completely dry. When the roots are wet, the trail is more difficult to navigate and slipping can be a real hazard for the less-experienced rider. If you want to avoid riding on Highway 101, you can certainly ride the Cummins Creek loop without the road sections, but the climb in the woods is much more difficult than the road climb (we did encounter one intrepid soul who was riding the route backwards, up the steep parts we were riding down). Keep in mind that most of the other trails in the Cape Perpetua area are closed to mountain bikes, so follow posted signs carefully.

C O M M E N TA R Y • B Y L O R I T O B I A S

A story of perseverance

y dad was a storyteller. I didn’t think of him that way when he was alive, but after he died all my best memories of Toby were of him sitting at the table or on the front porch or with buddies at the local tavern telling a story. Usually it ended in laughter — he loved to tell my hubs stories about me, like the time I went for my first bra, a 28AAA, and told the clerk, “I’ll need a bigger size next time.” Sometimes, too, it would be one of those tales that left him shaking his head over some inexplicable woe he just didn’t understand. My mom didn’t tell stories so much, but every morning before she went to work, she left notes for me and my sister written in longhand, usually on a yellow legal pad. In them, she would tell us what to cook for dinner or to take care of some household chore. Often, they’d be accompanied by a few bucks for a cold soda or ice cream. Once, after she’d grounded me for the entire summer, she wrote, “And please tell Lori to behave. She knows I hate to punish her.” The grounding lasted two days. Between my dad’s verbal tales and mom’s written notes, it seems natural now that I would become a writer. I asked for my first diary at 11, started a journal at 14, wrote my first poem the same year and, at 16, asked not for a car but a typewriter — and received a yellow Smith Corona in a brown plastic zippered case. I already had the portable my mom’s boss had given her when he retired. It was a Remington Noiseless Model Seven and came with its own carrying case. It was — and still is — missing the M key. I’d been banging around on it since I was five. Writing for me was never a choice. It just is and always has been what I do. I think it may very well be how I cope with life, how I process it, make sense of it. And I love it, but damn, it is a hard way to make a living. I got my first rejection the same year I got my Smith Corona. It was a postcard from a greeting card company and featured a bunch of people on the front, red-nosed and drinking. I couldn’t even begin to tell you the rejection I’ve known since. But I was lucky, I was able to make a career as a journalist and while I watched rejection after rejection pour in after I’d written first one novel and then a second, at least I had the satisfaction of my day job.

A stack of rejection letters

For years I persevered, convinced if I just stayed the course I would ﬁnd a publisher for my work. But recently I began to think it was time to give up. No matter what I achieved, I could get no one interested in my novel. Well, that’s not completely true. Once, an agent contacted me to say she loved the book — but she hated one of the main characters — the one around whom the entire plot revolved. Would I be willing to get rid of him? Every so often I’d say that’s it. I’m done. I’m

20 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • august 1, 2014

putting it away for good now. Then I’d stumble upon some bit of hope and send it back out. Last week, in the middle of a quiet afternoon, my cell rang. It was a number I didn’t recognize. “This is Lori,” I answered. “This is … You sent me your novel.” “Yes,” I said, not daring to breathe. “It’s beautiful,” she said. “I love it.” It’s the phone call a writer waits her whole life to hear. It’s the dream call. The one that, once you’ve hung up the phone, makes you rush to pick it up again. And, of course, I did, to call my hubs, my sister, the dear writing friends who have supported me for so, so long. But it was bittersweet, too. I couldn’t help but think about all those I couldn’t call. My mom. My dad. My brother. And yet, I like to think for them no call was necessary. I like to think somehow they already knew.

A bitter pill to swallow The science behind the diet soda sweetener aspartame will be the topic of a Wednesday, Aug. 6, presentation by Prof. Woodrow Monte at Pig Feathers BBQ in Toledo. Monte, the author of “While Science Sleeps a Sweetener Kills,” will lay out his ﬁndings that aspartame contributes to the development of Alzheimer’s disease. Monte argues that a global increase in conditions such as Alzheimer’s, autism, breast cancer, multiple sclerosis, melanoma, arthritis, stroke, heart disease and diabetes can be traced back to the FDA’s 1981 approval of aspartame for use in diet drinks. The free presentation will begin at 6 pm at the restaurant, 300 S. Main Street. All ages are welcome. Guests are advised to arrive early to assure seating, and if intending to eat, 5 pm arrival is recommended. For more information, go to www. WhileScienceSleeps or call Becky Miller at 503-504-7289.

Duck Fan? Beaver Fan? Lincoln County High School Fan? Prof. Woodrow Monte with PigFeathers co-owner Becky Miller, who painted the illustrations for his book, “While Science Sleeps a Sweetener Kills,” about diet soda sweetener aspartame.

An ABBA tribute? Swede. When the history of music is written, pop group ABBA will deserve a special mention for being the only band to emerge from the Eurovision Song Contest with their reputation enhanced. That feat alone makes the group worthy of the countless tribute acts that have sprung up in their wake. And, on Saturday, Aug. 2, Lincoln City audiences will get to transport themselves back to the time of “Mamma Mia” and “Dancing Queen” when The Concert – A Tribute to ABBA, performs for one night only at Chinook Winds Casino Resort. Formed in 1996, the tribute group quickly became known for its fantastic ABBA sound and stunning live “ABBA-

The legendary northwest Whiskey Creek String Band will be celebrating their 40th anniversary reunion in Newport on Friday, Aug. 1, when the band members team up for a performance at Café Mundo. The band was formed in 1974, when Fiddling Sue Hunnell and her husband, Tom, joined up with Coyote Bill Terry and proceeded to tour the Paciﬁc Northwest for 10 years. Eventually settling in Oregon, they continued to develop their unique blend of traditional and modern sound that they have called “hoedown boogie.” The Hunnells and Terry will be joined by bassist Zane Heﬀner and drummer George Filgate when they take to the stage from 7 to 10 pm at Café Mundo, 209 NW Coast Street.

The band takes its name from “the Father of Bluegrass,” Bill Monroe, who, in the late ’30s, developed a style of music that drew upon his entire musical experience. The Kentuckian Monroe and his Blue Grass Boys established what became to be known as bluegrass. When they last appeared at the cultural center in 2012, the band enjoyed a sold-out house and a standing ovation.

The longest running and largest event of its type on the Oregon Coast, the fair will see the Yachats Commons filled with nearly 75 exhibitors from the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Guests can choose to sit for an aura photograph and have the colors interpreted by Judy Lekic, a psychic, medium, medical intuitive and author from Colorado. Lekic’s newest book, “Angelic Interventions” will also be available. Meanwhile aromatherapy practitioner Jean Lynch of Depoe Bay will be on hand to explain how aromatherapy can work for various people in different situations, with free samples on offer.

Gail Archer of Amazing Face & Body Art will be offering beautiful, temporary body decorations in a soothing Henna Tattoo process, as well as colorful face and body painting for guests who really want to stand out. Over at the Holi Smokes Booth, Dyana Patamia will be offering free samples of organic vaping tonic formulas, designed to be delivered by a mobile, hand-held, personal vaporizer. The process involves no plant combustion, burning or smoke — just water vapor. Texas author Chavah Aima will offer soul analysis, a unique spiritual psychology tool she developed to help people see their true identity and activate their soul’s mission in life.

e’ve all heard of farmers praying for rain, but art gallery owners — not so much. Nevertheless, Lee Freed of the Freed Gallery in Lincoln City was among those hoping for a break in the Pacific Northwest’s recent dry spell as she prepared for the gallery’s Saturday, Aug. 2, reception. The event kicks off a new show pairing the paintings of Dušanka Kralj with the figurative sculptures of Katy McFadden. Just days before the show, Freed contacted the Portland-based McFadden to check on the status of some more large-scale figures only to discover that the pieces had yet to be fired. “She said ‘I can’t fire them because we’ve had no rain,” Freed said. “’I won’t start my kiln until we have rain.” Fortunately for coastal art fans, last Wednesday’s dousing proved enough to assuage McFadden’s concerns about fire risk and the figures arrived just in time for the show. Once in the gallery, the sculptures were arranged along with the Kralj’s works, brightly colored abstract paintings created with layer upon layer of acrylic paint. This is the second time that Freed has chosen to display the artists together, a decision she said was driven by the sharp contrast between their work. “They had nothing in common,” she said, “and I thought it would be perfect.” McFadden’s figures have been a mainstay at the gallery for the past 15 years, displaying the influences of the artist’s travels to Nepal and Mexico. “All of her forms had some humanistic appeal to me,” Freed said. In her artist’s statement, McFadden says she feels the strength in her work comes from her willingness to take emotional and physical risks to explore ideas as well as the limitations of the materials with which she works. McFadden uses several methods to create her standing figures, including raku, an ancient Japanese style of firing in which red hot pieces of ceramic are pulled out of the kiln and placed in containers along with various combustible materials. The reactions that occur within are responsible for the colors and sheens that appear, making for an unpredictable method that ensures no two pieces come out the same. Meanwhile, working from a studio on the Northern California Coast, Kralj is also working to create unique works, albeit with

very different techniques. Working with acrylic paints, she begins to build up layer upon layer, starting with bold colors and moving to more subdued tones. Kralj then scrapes and sands through to the layers beneath, making irregular incisions that give her canvasses a sculptural quality and, she said, create a metaphor for connecting the past with the present. Kralj was among the artists highlighted in a recent profile of the Freed Gallery published in the August edition of American Art Collector. The gallery is the only Oregon institution to feature in the magazine’s start-by-state guide to fine art. Saturday’s reception will run from 2 to 5 pm at the gallery, 6119 SW Hwy. 101, Lincoln City. Light summer refreshments including lemonade and ice tea will be served.
