THE EAST POINT LIGHTHOUSE

sits quietly tucked away on the eastern shore of the Delaware Bay, hidden from view from the land unless you turn off the less than beaten path to an unmarked still less beaten path deep in southern NJ. (Now THAT is a sentence!) I literally stumbled upon the LH some 25 plus years ago when I took the photo from which this was painted. I since learned that it was once a US navy structure which had long been abandoned.

I have painted this delightful LH in watercolor and pastel, and this is my first rendering in acrylic.

Below is the wc done some 20 plus years ago.

If I can find the pics, I will post the pastel later
