About this artwork
Beyond the old, foreground pilings is Mo’s, a famous seafood restaurant on the waterfront of Florence, Oregon. I visit Oregon nearly once each year and never miss an opportunity to eat at any Mo’s location. But, Florence is my favorite.
In 1950, Mohava Marie Niemi began her first restaurant in the harbor of Newport, Oregon. It became a popular hangout for fishermen, recognized for its seafood, especially the clam chowder. In 1968 she opened Mo’s… Annex, sister to Original Mo’s, across the street, overlooking Yaquina Bay. By the early eighties, Mo’s had expanded to Mo’s West at Devil’s Punchbowl in Otter Rock, Lincoln City, Florence, and Cannon Beach.

« As an artist, maritime scenes grab me, inherently providing the elements necessary for a good painting. Water adds contrast in edges, shapes, and value. Reflections guarantee compositional continuity. »
Bill Hudson is a prize-winning American artist whose paintings have been exhibited in the United States. Every one of his nautical themed compositions brings back fond memories of working the water as a child, or owning his own crab boat in San Pedro as an adult. Hudson's realistic works are created using watercolors and casein, which uses milk curds as a binder rather than gum arabic associated with watercolor and gouache.
