Beachwalk, An Everyday Journey Through Sea, Sand, and Soul, by Audrey Schumacher
Moe, M-D’56. Hardcover, 144 pages, more than 100 watercolor illustrations
by the author, Walk Publishing, LLC (www.walkpublishing.com), June 2004.
Audrey Schumacher Moe has illustrated Blue Gates, a children’s book; been
published in Celebrate the Bolsa Chica, an anthology; and is working on a cartoon
book about retirement, as well as on Desertwalk, a sequel to Beachwalk. She and
her husband are currently residents of the desert, having moved from Corona del
Mar, on the California coast, to the Coachella Valley of southern California.
In Beachwalk, Schumacher Moe writes about nature — and more than
nature. She captures the essence of the outdoors from the smallest of creatures
to the
grandeur of mountains and, through dedicated observation, relates details easily
missed by the casual observer. Then, she fills in the picture with exotic and
little-known scientific details, celebrating the importance of the ant as well
as the orchid. While describing her daily walks, she sees past the obvious and
digs into the inner self and, with her finely crafted watercolors, she shows
us her treasures.
