Lighthouses & Seascapes
I love the ocean, the beach, and lighthouses. When I returned to my art in the Nineties, I started painting lighthouses, before branching out to other subjects. I have several photo albums of lighthouses including Long Island, New England, and Canada's Maritime Provinces that I use for these paintings, along with a file of dramatic sky photos that I have taken over the years. I also enjoy painting anything beach-related, including seascapes and items such as shells and bits of rope that I find along the shore.
As with the other paintings, click on one to get the larger image.
