Description
I have long had a fascination with lighthouses. They have such an important role in protecting ships that are traveling in rough waters and inclement weather. I have visited several lighthouses in my travels and always wanted to paint one but this is my first painting of one of these wonderful structures. This particular lighthouse is from my imagination so there is no location to name.
Recently I began doing some acrylic pours. When I did my first one the idea to combine poured water with a lighthouse painting was born. I wasn't sure I could make it work but was pleasantly surprised with the results I got. I blew through a straw onto the white/blue paint to get the foam and then poured the rest of the water controlling the direction by tipping my canvas in the direction I wanted the water to take.
This painting is 20" x 16" x .5" and is done on gallery wrapped canvas.
