"In a current exhibition at the Art Gallery, Beryl Cochran of
Quathiaski Cove, is showing a series of brightly colored and luminous compositions of
California. The oil paintings, without displaying any original viewpoint, are harmonious
in color and well executed technically.
A number of the exhibits were painted around Carmel and Monterey, places well known to many
artists and other Vancouver visitors to California.
The picture of "Twisted Pines and Dunes" on the beach at Carmel is fresh in feeling and
colorful in its depiction of windswept trees against a typical, placid, blue-green sea and
distant purple clouds on the horizon.
A still-life "Callas Lilies" reveals good spacing and pleasing rhythm in a decorative
composition. A painting of the famous "Point Lobos" recalls in its gay and vibrant blue
scenes of the Mediterrean."
