Spring Thaw at Portland Head Light
8 in. x 8 in., acrylic on panel
$200 framed
Being probably the most photographed place on the eastern seaboard, and only 2 hours from my home, it's an easy hole-in-one to paint PHL any time I'm feeling like I just want to create a piece of classic New England. I've painted and sold this lighthouse a few times over, and feel like I know all its details by heart. This view was painted from some reference photos we took when we were there in March a while back. As chilly as it was, the cold blue of the ocean and stark white of the lighthouse looked warmer with the orange and red scrub and grasses matted from the recently melted snow cover.
