Josef Woodard, Santa Barbara News-Press Dec 24, 2010: "As for another strictly local travelogue-ish touch - accessible just several blocks down Linden Avenue where it meets the beach - Rebecca Stebbins shows her mild-mannered painting "Looking Out." Who knew that her totemic subject matter, a lifeguard stand, could be so loaded with expressive and metaphorical powers? It seems all the more imbued with meaning here, in one of the last great small beach towns in America."
