Winter at Portland Head Light ~ SOLD! (Somebody liked this!)
12 in. x 24 in., acrylic on canvas
$300 unframed
I love the coast in winter, at least to paint from. The mood, landscape and colors are often more interesting than summertime, which can often appear bleached and muted by the full summer sun. We were on our little annual winter trip to Portland this year and it had been a while since we pulled in to Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth. This lighthouse is one of the most photographed places in America. Even Edward Hopper gave it his treatment. It's hard to get a unique view of this lovely place, but the view from the cliff walk, with the ragged, rocky cliff wall, the dead grasses, and the fickle winter sky was enough for me. I hope you like it.
