from the editor The trick with candy
T
his year marked my ďŹ rst as the father of an active trick-or-treater, as Krista and I took assistant editor Quinn down to Lincoln City’s Tanger Outlet Center on Halloween. I say active trick-or-treater because this was technically Quinn’s second Halloween trip to Tanger. But last year, at the ripe old age of six months and dressed like a bumblebee, he had to be carried around the mall and fell sound asleep halfway through. No chance of that this year as our little puppy dog raced from storefront to storefront, collecting candy in his pumpkinshaped bucket. And, while he has mastered words like “apple,â€? “cheeseâ€? and, of course, “Elmo,â€? “trick or treatâ€? is still a little beyond his grasp — meaning he had to rely on his winning smile to get that bucket ďŹ lled. We now face the postHalloween challenge Take Home a True that is familiar to many Oregon Coast Patrick Alexander parents — what on Earth Editor & Publisher do you do with a bucket Souvenir! full of candy? As a child that already climbs the • Glass Floats •T-Shirts walls, chases the cat and has a habit of throwing • Wind Chimes himself downstairs headďŹ rst, Quinn must be prevented at all costs from ever being left alone • Gifts & Jewelry with that bucket. “Family Gifts @ Family Pricesâ€?

Answering some saline questions The Oregon Coast Learning Institute will continue its fall semester on Tuesday, Nov. 11, with presentations on emergency medicine and the mysteries of the Salton Sea. The institute, open to anyone interested in lifelong learning, meets a Salishan Spa & Golf Resort, 7760 Hwy. 101, Gleneden Beach. Tuesday’s session will start at 10 am with a presentation on emergency medicine from Dr. Lesley Ogden, chief operations officer at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital in Lincoln City. As a medical specialty, emergency medicine is relatively new; with the first residency program starting in 1970. Emergency medicine programs now exist worldwide and, according to recent data, visits are rising, leading to a shortage of trained physicians that looks set to continue for the foreseeable future. At 1 pm, Peter Lacques will present “The Mystery of the Salton Sea,” a look at California’s largest lake, which was formed by a breach of the Colorado River in 1905.

Corroded structures on the Salton Sea shore
For two years, the overflow of the Colorado River flowed into the Salton Sea. The breach was repaired but the sea continued to be replenished by the drainage of irrigation water from the Imperial Valley. The soils, highly saline in content, have raised the salt level of the Salton Sea to higher than the Pacific Ocean. When first formed, the Salton Sea was a great recreational area for Southern Californians, with a land and construction boom that
created new towns and resorts. But constant degradation has turned the sea into an environmental nightmare. The session will conclude at 2 pm with book reports from members, facilitated by Judy McNeil. Membership dues are $75 for the year, which includes 12 sessions in the fall and 12 in the spring. Visitors are always welcome to try one session free. For more information, go to www.ocli.us or call 503-3923297 or 541-265-8023.

Words from a seasoned expert The words of popular garden columnist Dulcy Mahar helped shape countless coastal gardens throughout her 22-year career with The Oregonian. And, on Saturday, Nov. 8, those words will take center stage at Connie Hansen Garden in Lincoln City, where Mahar’s husband. Ted, will present a new compilation of her columns, “Through the Seasons with Dulcy.” As Dulcy well knew, a garden is a yearround passion, with each season bringing opportunities to experience the space in new ways. “Through the Seasons with Dulcy” organizes some 140 of her columns by season, giving readers the opportunity to see how gardens, as well as gardeners, change over time. In an informal, yet knowledgeable and witty style, she guides the reader through the annual — and perennial — cycles of the gardening life. The book also features more than 190 beautifully detailed photographs from Dulcy’s garden in Portland’s Garthwick neighborhood. “For Dulcy, a garden was something to enjoy, and no matter the time of year, there was also something to plan or do,” Ted Mahar said. “When winter weather made working outdoors impossible, she counseled using that time to curl up by the fire with stacks of gardening books and magazines and reams of paper to plot your springtime projects. In summer, she reminded her readers to take advantage of the weather to not only work in the garden but also to take the time to smell the roses you planted.” Dulcy, who died of cancer in 2011, gave her readers much more than advice on what to plant, mistakes to avoid, how to add whimsy and design rules to break. “Through the Seasons with Dulcy” also reminds Dulcy’s fans how she let them share her life through tales of her pets, her husband, her family, friends and, of course, her gardening partner-in-crime, Doug the Wonder Guy. “One of the great joys of gardening, I’ve found, has nothing to do plants, design or a feeling of ‘oneness with the Earth’ — a phrase that gardeners often grab onto to describe why they love to garden,” Dulcy wrote. “I enjoy all these things, but most of all I am thankful for

the people one meets through gardening.” “Through the Seasons with Dulcy” also includes a photo tour of Dulcy’s home, showing how her colorful garden personality translated to her home’s interior, as well as essays by Ted Mahar, Peggy McMullen, Dulcy’s editor at The Oregonian, garden writer Kym Pokorny and Douglas Wilson. This is the second compilation of Dulcy’s columns from Ted Mahar, who was a film and television writer and critic at The Oregonian for nearly four decades. His first compilation, “Back in the Garden with Dulcy,” was released two years ago and sold more than 11,000 copies. Both books will be available at the Saturday, Nov. 8 presentation, which will begin at 2 pm at the garden, 1931 NW 33rd Street, Lincoln City, followed by a book signing from 3 to 4 pm. Both events are free and open to the public and a portion of the proceeds from each book sold will benefit the garden. To reserve a seat, call 541-996-6338 or email conniehansengarden@msn.com.

It’s been nearly seven years since Kathy and Dan Draper planted their Jolly Roger at the corner of SE 51st Street and Hwy. 101, in the Taft district of Lincoln City. He’s the head pirate, she’s the first mate, and together they run Captain Dan’s Pirate Pastry Shop. The cases are filled with Nautical Knots (an orange-flavored, yeast-bread twist), Pirate Eyes (small tarts filled with jam) and an impressive array of turnovers, cookies, cinnamon rolls, muffin tops and macaroons. But in the run up to Thanksgiving, all of these play second fiddle to the Drapers’ range of decadent pies, including gluten-free and sugar-free options. “Pies are our favorite thing to make,” Kathy said, “so I’m a happy camper.” The offerings include Grandma’s pirate apple pie, which sees handmade caramel sauce poured over a lattice pastry lid; as well as a mincemeat pie made with buffalo meat and a dash of brandy thrown in for good measure.
Brandy also features prominently in the couple’s signature whipping cream, served with the deluxe versions of their pumpkin and pecan pies. “Pies are such comfort food,” Kathy said, “People just get real warm and fuzzy and really want comfort food and want family and friends around.” It was the search for a warmer, fuzzier life that brought Dan and Kathy to the coast after careers in banking. Captain Dan spent 30 years in the Portland Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank. Kathy also toiled at the Fed, although for a shorter duration, and operated her own coffee business in the financial district. The couple have seen great success since setting up in Taft and were voted best bakery in Lincoln County from 2009 to 2013. This combination of big bank expertise and small business smarts makes Dan the perfect candidate to dole out advice in “Ask a Pirate: The Business Edition.”

Ʃ˶ΎƯȶȯɂ̃ɁΎɂȶȳΎȹȳɇΎɂȽΎȵȽȽȲΎȱɃɁɂȽȻȳɀΎ ɁȳɀɄȷȱȳ˾Ύ A: That’s a good question. I certainly didn’t learn it at the Federal Reserve. There’s no customer service there. There is only compliance and non-compliance. Here, it’s totally different, but we have a good formula. We pay attention to our customers. We greet them at the door, we tell them to have a nice day when they leave, we give them directions and make them feel welcome here. It takes a certain kind of Disney personality, because people can be hard sometimes. I wish that every customer was like that little boy who came in and said, “Mr. Pirate! I waited ALL NIGHT to come here!” I hope that boy remembers me, because I will remember him. Maybe he’ll come visit me someday in the nursing home.

But if they just have a vague idea, then I try to take them down a little path, saying “Why don’t you try something new? Do you like chocolate? Fruit? Sweet? Tart?” I’d like to have a giant tongue chart that I could pull down, and point to the different taste buds with a long pointer.

We give all our day-old pastries to the Backpack Program, which sends food home for school kids who need it over the weekend, and the local food pantries. We belong to the Bay Area Merchants Association, and we always take part in the Pirate Treasure Hunt in Depoe Bay. And we’re always trying new recipes and flavor combinations.

Kathy got the idea from watching “Worst Cooks in America” on the Food Network.

All of a sudden the apple comes in, waving a flag and says no wait for me! I have flavor too, because I’m a Granny Smith apple. And then comes a completely different taste with the flaky crust. I could eat a whole tray. It’s like they’re laced with cocaine. Captain Dan’s Pirate Pastry Shop is located at 5070 SE Hwy. 101 in the Taft district of Lincoln City.

Up at the quack of dawn If you can’t tell your Canada goose from your Aleutian cackling goose then the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has a proposition — get out of bed early and they’ll take care of the rest. Ducky at Dawn is a new bird watching program that will run at Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge near Pacific City every Sunday morning throughout November Wildlife refuge volunteer Lee Sliman will be on hand in the sheltered bird observation deck to point out the differences among the six different kinds of goose along with thousands of ducks that rest and feed in the pastures of the refuge. “It’s an ideal time to see fall colors and fields covered in waterfowl of all shapes and sizes,” Sliman said. “So bundle up, bring a hot
beverage, relax and before you know it those geese that ‘all looked alike’ will take on separate identities.” The program will begin with a session at 7:30 am on Sunday, Nov. 9; and continue on Sunday, Nov. 16, at 7:45 am; Sunday, Nov. 23, at 8 am; and Sunday, Nov. 30, at 8:15 am. Spotting scopes, binoculars and seating are provided. Meet in the lower parking lot at the bird observation deck. The refuge is located on the west side of Highway 101 about six miles south of Pacific City. Turn west off the highway onto Christensen Road and proceed a half-mile to the lower parking lot. For more information, call Sliman at 503812-6392.

Photographers and bird watchers alike are invited to join the Audubon Society of Lincoln City for a field trip along the Salmon River Estuary on Saturday, Nov. 8.

photographing birds; as well as weather-appropriate clothing. No prior birding experience is necessary; and binoculars and field guides are available. The walk will begin at 9 am, starting from the River House at Cascade Head Ranch. At the junction of Highway 101 and Three Rocks Road North, travel west for 2.3 miles. At the “Y” in the road, turn right on to Savage Road and follow it to the end. For more information, call 541-992-9720 or go to http:// lincolncityaudubon.org/ calendar.html.

A great time to FA L L for the Oregon Coast
T
Season’s first rains set cascades gushing
he first real rains of the season on the Oregon Coast are filled with significance. They mean it’s time to finally get out the ladder and clear a summer’s worth of pine needles from your gutters; time to start doubling up on Gore-Tex; and — most of all —time to dig out the hiking boots and take a trip to one of the coast’s breathtaking waterfalls. With rivers starting to swell but trails still in good shape after the dry season, fall can be a great time to catch some of the coast’s cascades at their best. (Cover photo: Drift Creek Falls)
Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls Trail No. 1379
This trail, a one-mile walk through dense foliage, actually leads to two beautiful cascades within sight of one another. Niagara, named for a nearby point (rather than the obvious namesake in New York), is a 107-foot plungetype fall, while Pheasant Creek Falls is a segmented 112 feet. Both lie near the border of Tillamook and Yamhill counties in the Nestucca River drainage, about 18 miles (on windy roads) east of Hwy. 101. Improved in the late 1980s, this trail TODAY photo features four benches, wood bridges and a picnic table at the bottom. If you’ve caught the waterfall collecting bug, check your map for Clarence Creek and Alder Glen Falls; both are within a short drive of the Niagara Trail. The no-fee Rocky Bend campground is centrally located to all four waterfall destinations.
LENGTH: Two-mile round trip
ELEVATION CHANGE: 300 feet DIFFICULTY: Moderate SEASON: Open year round FACILITIES: Picnic table at the end of the trail. HOW TO GET THERE: From Hwy. 101 at Beaver, travel east on Blaine Road for 6 miles. At Blaine Junction, veer right to travel east on Upper Nestucca River Road for 5.8 miles to Forest Service Road 8533, on the right. Go south 4.3 miles to Forest Service Road 8533-131. Turn right at the junction and travel 0.7 miles to trailhead parking. ADVISORY: Forest Service Roads in fall can make for tough driving. Take a map or go to www.fs.fed.us/r6/siuslaw to download a mapping app to your smartphone. FOR DETAILS: Call 503-392-3161.
on the cover Drift Creek Falls For a moderate, half-day excursion that will keep you in suspense, you can’t beat Drift Creek Falls, east of Lincoln City in the Siuslaw National Forest (note: this is the northernmost of two Drift Creeks found in the Coast Range, the other is near Waldport). This three-mile hike bends down through changing forest settings, including a little old growth, to arrive at a 75-foot cascade-style falls, picnic tables and creek access. From the parking area, the TODAY photo The bridge at Drift Creek Falls trail descends through Douglas fir, sword fern, salmonberry and huckleberry. The trail switches back 400 feet, through red alders, hemlock and Western red cedar, down to mossy logs and big-leaf maples. The climax of the trip is a 240-foot-long suspension bridge that spans the creek canyon, offering dizzying views of the waterfall as it erupts from the cliff and plunges down to the rocks below.
Drift Creek Falls No. 1378 LENGTH: Three-mile round trip
ELEVATION CHANGE: 400 feet DIFFICULTY: Easy to moderate SEASON: Trail open year round. FACILITIES: Vault toilet at trailhead, picnic table at bridge
Munson Creek Falls If time is short and expectations are great, head to the most accessible and impressive waterfall in this neck of the woods: Munson Creek Falls, named for Goran Munson, a native of Michigan who settled the area in the 1890s. A triple horsetail falls down 319 feet, it’s the tallest cascade in the Coast Range, and it’s just two miles on gravel road from Hwy. 101, south of Tillamook. The trail is less than a mile round trip, a straight shot through big-leaf maple, old-growth Western red cedar and Sitka spruce (including one of the country’s tallest remaining Sitkas). Parking at the trailhead is limited, and there is no turnaround space for recreational vehicles.
FEE: $5 day-use fee, or season/lifetime forest pass
Munson Creek State Natural Site
HOW TO GET THERE: From Hwy. 101 south of Lincoln City (and north of Salishan) turn east east on Drift Creek Road. Turn right on South Drift Creek Road, ¼ mile, then left onto Forest Service Road 17. Stay on F.S. Road 17 to trailhead, approximately 10 miles.
LENGTH: Half mile round trip
ELEVATION CHANGE: Minimal DIFFICULTY: Easy SEASON: Open year round

November lave A
s I write this, the big November storm that annually blows through the Oregon Coast has yet to arrive. It will come. I’m not worried. It was preordained by the Prophet of Oregon Rain, Ken Kesey, in his Bible of rain, “Sometimes a Great Notion.” Yes, the relentless will commence soon and it will go on for six more months, bales and bales of water. People will bail as a result, and I literally mean bail as in post bail to leave town, bail to keep the ship from sinking, and bail to get the hell out. There’s been so many over my coastal years I’ve lost count. They ought to put up a big gray post on the coastal highways leading back to the Willamette Valley and let the quitters notch their names in wood. The more rain falls on my Oregon Coast life, the better I do everything, and the worse terrible people do everything else, or I’d like to believe. It’s a pep talk I give myself at halftime of every day of living here. Rain coaches everything. One simply has to have the talent to recognize its soft lessons. Walt Whitman was a stellar man of rain. He wrote many superb lines about it. He wrote the following poem called “The Voice of Rain” that a friend recently sent me. How I, an author who wrote a book about rain, didn’t know of its existence is simply preposterous.
There is still so much more to know about rain, including fresh insights gleaned from dead poets who never saw Oregon rain.
The Voice of Rain And who art thou? said I to the soft-falling shower, Which, strange to tell, gave me an answer, as here translated: I am the Poem of Earth, said the voice of the rain, Eternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea, Upward to heaven, whence, vaguely form’d, altogether changed, and yet the same, I descend to lave the droughts, atomies, dust-layers of the globe, And all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn; And forever, by day and night, I give back life to my own origin, and make pure and beautify it; (For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfillment, wandering, Reck’d or unreck’d, duly with love returns.) When I first read this poem, I tripped over the word lave. Lave? What was that? I knew from context it was
a verb of some kind. God knows how many millions of words I’ve read in my life, but I’d never read lave in print. I looked it up in a real dictionary. Lave: “To wash one’s self or flow along or against.”
I descend to lave the droughts, atomies, dust-layers of the globe, And all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn… It was the most exquisite use of verb associated with rain I had ever encountered. I don’t think it can possibly be topped. I now lave in Oregon Coast rain all time, particularly on the beach. If you decide to go commune with the ocean on one of Oregon’s publicly owned beaches, and rain is falling, you might see me laving. Come up and wave. But don’t say anything. Laving is best done in silence. Matt Love is the author of 12 books about Oregon, including “Of Walking in Rain.” They are available at all coastal bookstores or through his web site, nestuccaspitpress.com. He can be reached at nestuccaspitpress@gmail.com.

I think therefore I GLAM With the nights falling earlier and earlier and the weather getting wetter, winter on the coast can sometimes seem like a drag. But on Friday, Nov. 14, Apollo’s Restaurant & Nightclub in Newport will combat the winter blues with a dose of pure fabulousness in the form of Caravan of GLAM. Hosted by Topaz Crawford, the show will feature performances from drag stars including Isaiah Esquire, who recently returned from a tour through Finland and was a headliner at the Caribbean Burlesque Festival. Joining Esquire in the line up are Johnny Nuriel, who blends belly dance, burlesque and LEDs to creative effect; and Jayla Rose, who has performed across the US and worked alongside Liza Minnelli and many other Broadway legends. The Caravan of GLAM began little more than a year ago in
Portland and went on to travel throughout the Pacific Northwest and into Northern California, debuting on the Oregon Coast at Apollo’s in March 2014. Creator Justin Buckles said the event is far from a traditional drag show. “Get ready for a show unlike anything that you’ve seen,” he said. “Our shows are very interactive and audience driven. We will be down in the crowd, we will bring people up on stage, we will be showing a lot of skin, and we will have something for everyone.” Tickets for the Nov. 14 show are $10 general admission or $20 for VIP. Doors will open at 7 pm, with the show starting at 9 pm. Apollo’s is located at 836 SW Bay Blvd. Find out more at www.caravanofglam.com.

Hear Cuba on the tuba The Newport Symphony Orchestra will warm up the rainy season with a high-energy pair of performances featuring Cuban and gypsy-themed music on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 8 and 9. For these performances, the orchestra welcomes internationally-acclaimed guest soloist Eugenia Choi, a violinist who has been attracting international recognition since her concerto debut at the age of 10. Born in Canada of Korean heritage, Choi began her violin studies at the age of three, and received multiple music degrees from the Julliard School in New York. In addition to serving on the faculty of universities in Canada and the USA, she maintains a busy schedule as a much-sought-after soloist for orchestras in Europe, Asia and the Americas, as well as for radio and television broadcasts. For her violin solo, Choi will play the “Poème Op. 25” by French composer Ernest Chausson and “Tzigane,” an electrifying, gypsy-themed piece by fellow Frenchman Maurice Ravel. Conductor Adam Flatt will open the concerts with the “Cuban Overture” by George Gershwin. This creative and melodic piece was inspired by a trip the composer took to Cuba, and features exciting Latin percussion. The program will continue on a tropical and spirited path with three works by Ernesto Lacuona, a virtuoso Cuban pianist and composer whose music was popularized in the U.S. by Desi Arnaz. Three of his most popular short pieces are on the program: “Andalucia,” “Jungle Drums” and “Malaguena.” The concert will conclude with Manuel de Falla’s Suite No. 2 from “The Three-cornered Hat,” a ballet infused with Andalusian folk melodies. The Saturday, Nov. 8, concert will begin at 7:30 pm, preceded by a short talk by the conductor at 6:45 pm. The Sunday, Nov. 9, matinée will begin at 2 pm. Both performances will take place at the Newport Performing Arts Center, 777 W. Olive Street. Tickets, $20 and $34, or $10 for students, are available at the Performing Arts Center box office, or by calling 541-2652787 or at www.coastarts.org. The concert is sponsored by the Nye Beach Merchants Association, and is made possible by grants and donations from a range of individuals, businesses and foundations, as well as the City of Newport.

Full stream ahead Plunge into the coast’s rivers at Ben Soeby’s new show in Lincoln City Something fishy is brewing at Lincoln City’s Chessman Gallery, where Ben Soeby is preparing for “Live Your Dream” an exhibit of his latest imaginative creations inspired by the wildlife of the Oregon Coast’s rivers. The Lincoln City artist, also known as The Reverend Benny Bob, will be on hand to talk about his work at the show’s opening reception from 5 to 7 pm on Friday, Nov. 14. Refreshments will be served. The show features intricate and playful Prismacolor pencil drawings on reclaimed wood that Soeby says are designed to shake people up and unveil hidden truths. “Becoming intimate with life’s fragility lets us speak truth, love freely, give completely, live fully,” he said. “My art is just as much an expression of my inner life as it is a plea to call forth the fullness of life in others. I want to open closets. I want to rearrange the furniture. I want to shake things up and shift things. I want the hidden to be revealed, the lost to be found, the forgotten to be remembered.” Born in Newberg in 1971, Soeby was exposed to art at a very young age through his father’s work as a potter and art instructor. In 1975, he moved with his family to Lincoln City, where he found outlets for his creativity in skateboarding, pop culture and recreational fishing as
well as in painting, drawing and sculpture. As a youth, he formed a connection with a stream surveyor who also fished, which led to Soeby’s own seasonal employment for 12 years surveying streams along the coast. “Art and fishing saved my life,” he said, “and the two activities have given me an attachment to the moment, as well as a 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. At OSU, he was inspired by “outsider art,” symbolism and the work ethic of OSU professor Yuji Hiratsuka, an Osaka-born instructor of printmaking and drawing. Soeby went on to study art in Europe as an independent-study exchange student. “[Travel] changed my life over to making things informed by experience,” he said, adding that he vividly remembers being “blown away” upon viewing Picasso’s “Guernica” in person, at full scale. His encounters with the people and the art of the Venice Biennale in 1993 also contributed to the focus on personal experiences that he brings to his work. Soeby has also found inspiration in the fish and bird drawings,

ceramics and sculptures of Frank Boyden, co-founder of the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology. “The dark rich colors and textures in his work are fascinating,” Soeby said. Another local influence is Newport’s Rick Bartow, a source of inspiration since Soeby attended one of his lectures. “He said something that affected me so powerfully,” Soeby said, “that what he painted was affected as much by what he had lost as by what he had gained in his life.” 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 along with 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.”
Soeby said the choice of reclaimed wood as his canvas is a key part of his art. “Reclaiming found objects for art is important to me,” he said. “I like the stories in the wood and the way weather leaves its scars.” The show will remain up until Dec. 8, available to view from 10 am to 4 pm Wednesday through Monday. The Chessman Gallery is located within the Lincoln City Cultural Center at 540 NE Hwy. 101. For more information, call 541-994-9994 or go to lincolncityculturalcenter.org. Soeby’s work is also on display at Lincoln City’s Blackfish Café, as well as his own Fishboxes Gallery at 1266A SW 50th Street in Lincoln City. Gallery hours are by appointment. Call Soeby at 541921-8565 for details.
“Beauty Abounds” leaps into Newport Visual Arts Center
“Standing Tall” by Claudia Ryerson-Ignatieff
Paintings that capture the beauty of the Oregon Coast will be on display at the Newport Visual Arts Center in a new Coastal Oregon Visual Artists Showcase that opens on Friday, Nov. 7. “Beauty Abounds” by Lane County artist Claudia Ryerson-Ignatieff, will open with a public reception from 5 to 7 pm, with the artist giving a short talk on her work at 5:30 pm. “I paint because I appreciate the beauty I see all around me,” Ignatieff said. “I am inspired by the ocean and its gifts, wildlife and their devotion to their young, and the innocence, faithfulness and unconditional love of pets.” Ignatieff has taken lessons from gifted artists such as F.Michael Wood
22 • oregoncoastTODAY.com • facebook.com/oregoncoasttoday • november 7, 2014
and John Leasure, painting landscapes and seascapes; and for the past two years has studied portrait painting. Working with water-based oils, Ignatieff prefers her art to have a soft, blended feel. In addition to brushwork, she uses different sizes of spatulas to create textures such as bark on trees or the fur of animals. “My art has a sense of realism without being overly detailed,” she said. The showcase, which is hosted by the Oregon Coast Council for the Arts, also features a video documenting Ignatieff ’s work and artistic process. The exhibit will be on display through Jan. 3, available to view from noon to 4 pm, Tuesday through Saturday at the Newport Visual Arts Center, 777 NW Beach Drive.

Getting war stories on the record Vintage photographs and old records will create a home front atmosphere in “Melodies and Memories of World War II” at Lincoln City’s Driftwood Public Library on Sunday, Nov. 9. The event, timed to coincide with Veterans Day, will see three Lincoln City residents share their memories of the conflict, both on the home front and overseas. Vintage slides and Billboard Magazine’s Top Tunes will prompt personal stories while song leader Patsy McLean will lead the audience in familiar favorites such as “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” and “Mairzy Doats”. Priscilla and Richard Hawkins will play “Bugle Call Rag” and other vintage 78rpm records and share family memorabilia.
“Melodies and Memories” was created as a new program for the North Lincoln County Historical Museum during this year’s Celebration of Honor but has its roots in a series of talks that started 14 years ago. Those talks saw Lonnie “the Logger” Headrick sharing his history of logging on the Oregon Coast, particularly during the war. The second year, in response to a request for more on what women did on the home front, Joann Kangiser Schneider, a Taft High School classmate of Lonnie’s, joined the program, which had transformed into “World War II Teens Remember the Home Front”. In its third year, the program expanded again to include Ed Johann, who was a 17-year-old sailor on duty
