In early September I was fortunate to go on an artists retreat to a friend's wilderness cabin on the east side of Mount Rainier. Here's the cabin, itself, recently declared a historic landmark.
I stayed in the room named "Bear" which is fitting as it was my fathers childhood nickname for me, as well as being the home of a painting that I'd created on an earlier visit.
Here's a view of the nearby old growth forest, nicknamed "The Sanctuary."Here's two of the paintings I created this year, hung out to dry on the side of the hammock. They are oil paint on unstretched canvas.
It was a good year for collecting mushrooms. Unfortunately our hostess could not ID this bunch, but we found more than enough boletes and chanterelles to enjoy every evening.
