BY FRED M. WHITE
Amitint Qtr Editor. Th Orcfoiuu
Ernie was sketching. Balanced
on his little green folding stool,
with paper pad on his knees and
yellow pencil in hand, he was
looking shoreward from a boat
wharf at Taft. The scene before
him was a close-packed group of
wooden buildings, weather
beaten to a neutral gray, behind
the barrier reef of storm-tossed
logs.
Already the shoreward scene
was becoming recognizable in
the quick, sure pencil-strokes on
the sketch pad. Ernie was in
high spirits. We both were. The
sun was shining clear. The sky
was turquois and the sea cobalt.
The morning wind off shore was
cool, but not uncomfortable.
"This is wonderful," Ernie
said. "It's grand. It's perfect.
What a day!"
Soggy, floating logs, swirling
in violent eddies as the tide
started to ebb, charged the pier,
thumping the piling and shaking
the whole structure. Tall blue
breakers topped by dazzling
white were marching in straight
rows through the bay entrance.
A beachcomber in red wool shirt
and faded blue overalls was
selecting boards from the drift
heap. The artist's attention was
all on the drab shoreward scene.
Water Hard to Sketch
"Look, Ernie," I said gently.
"Wouldn't you like to sketch
what's practically under us here
those floating beat-up logs,
the surging water something
suggesting the indomitable
force of ocean currents?"
"Water," Ernie said, "is a very
difficult subject for pen-and-ink.
It's prettjk likely to look like
straw. Besides, it changes form.
You can stop it with a camera,
but not with a pencil."
"Have you noticed this scene
at our left," I went on. "It's
really beautiful."
"Oh, sure," he agreed without
looking up.
"Are you going to sketch that
before we go the curving head
land, the sharp, straight line of
the breakers paralleling the
horizon, that huge tangle of
Jagged logs?"
'Too massive," said Ernie.
"That's camera stuff. The sketch
pad can't compete with the cam
era and shouldn't try. That's a
perfect Kodachrome shot, and
it's been shot a thousand times."
That was my first lesson in a
highly enjoyable trip that turned
out to be full of them. With the
opening of the 1949 motorlog
season, The Oregonian faced the

market that fronts on the high
way proved to be standing on
tall stilts. Nearby in the bay a
wartime landing craft, demili
tarized and loaded with nets,
tugged restlessly at its anchor.
Gulls on patrol banked low to
look us over.
Loafing along southward, we
caught a sudden glimpe of
Yaquina head and its gleaming
white-and-red lighthouse.
"Hold It!" Ernie exclaimed.
'There's a picture."
Newport, along the old bay
waterfront, was a special prob
lem. "There's enough material here
to keep a man sketching all
summer," Ernie said.
He wanted a closeup of a light
house, and Heceta head light
was accessible. We climbed the
steep hillside behind the light,
and Ernie squatted on his heels
and sketched until his legs trem
bled from the cramped position,
and the sketch pad shook on bis
knees.
We explored the Yachats area
and mired the white AAA car
down, wheels spinning in the
black mud of Yachats Rock
state park. By stuffing dry
sedges under the wheels and
pushing, we got it going again
and kept rolling. We poked into
promising places all along the
coast.
Well, that's what It's like to
go on a sketching expedition
with an artist. You'll look at
the scenery through different
eyes and find new meaning in it.
problem of covering the often
covered Oregon beaches in a
new way. Someone had the
happy idea of sending an artist
instead of a photographer, so
Ernest Richardson and I took
off in one of the Oregon State
Motor association's new and
gleaming white flexible Fords.
Depoe Bay was an "artist's
paradise," and Ernie wished he
could stay a week. Amid knee
high salt-marsh grass, he set his
folding stool and sketched the
still-life fleet in a boatyard.
Masts and trolling booms leaned
at all angles. Out of their ele
ment, the dry boats seemed
awkward and uncomfortable. A
gnarled snag that had tried to
grow where no tree could sur
vive leaned over the rigid ships.
Seen from the rear, the fish
prepared especially for the par
lor. Mrs. Armstrong, too, will take
appointments all week.
Mr. Dyer barbered here a long
time before going to Condon and
Fossil.
Since the new boiler has been
in operation for some time, thus
providing more power, the night
shift went on day time Monday
morning.
