Kite Wall Art

Every summer in Lincoln City on the Oregon Coast they have a first-class kite festival. Folks come from all over to attend this gala event.

From year to year, there are new, cool and unusual kites flying out on the beach next to the D River...the shortest river in the world! The Whale kites and the Octopus kite caught the camera's eye.

Importantly, the wind was just right to make it a perfect day to fly kites!  People are milling around the kites or, are sitting down in the sand and eating picnic lunches.

And, everyone is having fun! This image was converted into a digital painting!
