Watercolor painting of Ponce Inlet Lighthouse
One of my favorite lighthouses, the Ponce Inlet, Florida lighthouse is a National Historic Landmark and one of the nation's best preserved. Completed in 1887, it remains a working aid to navigation and features the original keepers' dwellings. The tall brick tower has 203 steps. Perfect for the lighthouse lover and history buff, this watercolor painting captures the quaint beauty of this lighthouse using texture, color and delicate linework. The painting was inspired by a photograph taken by my sister, Cindy Wilkins and has a companion painting of the same lighthouse photographed at night.
9" x 12" watercolor and archival ink on 100% cotton paper.
Care of Watercolor Paintings
Watercolor portraits should be matted and framed to protect the fragile nature of watercolor. The professional watercolors used have different light fast qualities however, all watercolor paintings should be displayed away from direct sunlight, as they will eventually fade if not carefully protected.
NOT FRAMED
Original artwork comes unframed to allow it's new owner to decide what fits best in their home.
