Afternoon Light
16" x 20" Oil
I'm thrilled that my piece, Afternoon Light, got juried into the Top 100 of the National Parks Show, Paint The Parks. The exhibit celebrates our country's national parks, with a portion of the proceeds benefitting the National Parks Foundation. The painting will be a part of the Paint the Parks National Exhibition, as well as presently in the PaintAmerica online gallery: www.paintamerica.org.
Those of you who follow my blog know that my husband and I love to travel and as often as possible our trips include National Parks. This light house is from Cabrillo National Monument in San Diego. I just happened to be there when there was an incredible sunset and the light was right on the light house.
