Description
During the fall of 2015, we boated by Christian Island Lighthouse in Georgian Bay on a beautiful, sunny day. Georgian Bay, often called the Sixth Great Lake, is part of Lake Huron. The birds were soaring and the lighthouse was a gleaming white beacon that I knew would make a lovely painting. I could not wait to paint this one, so I completed the painting on our boat while continuing our journey so that I could preserve the memory of this beautiful sight.

The foreground waves create peacefulness, Sarah, while the warm clouds look uplifting.

Magnificent Christian Island lighthouse painting, Sarah! Gordon Lightfoot's wonderful ballad keeps repeating in my head now! L/F/Vote
Sarah Irland replied:
Yes! I was unfamiliar with the song at first - but after I heard it, I think of it every time! Thanks so much, Hanne!
Pat Goltz
This has a very nice style. Just realistic enough, but also painterly. And accurate visually. I like that.
