Eastern Point Lighthouse
Eastern Point Lighthouse
Linda Lee Johnson
$85.00


Artist statement: I chose Gloucester's Eastern Point Lighthouse for a landscape oil painting even though my photos of it date back to 2007. After working on it for a month or two, I returned to the scene later this summer only to discover that the two closest buildings were now missing. The clapboards of the buildings were difficult to paint, but I really enjoyed painting the people. I'm a birder as well as an artist, so it was nice painting one of my interests.
Specific medium: oil on canvas
