Day 11 - 30/30 Challenge - Still Virtually Visiting Monhegan



Monhegan Lighthouse Buildings, Sunrise
6" x 6", pastel, $35

Monhegan Lighthouse is such a "photogenic" lighthouse. With commanding views of MaƱana Island as well as the coast of Maine (on a clear day), this is one of the most popular places to paint and photograph on the island. The light and shadows on the angles of the buildings - the walls and the roofs, the sky – are just fabulous. I love the blue of the sky, the red roofs, the weather worn white buildings and the green, green grass. 

 I could probably paint on this hill for a month. Just delicious.

    1. Thanks Sandra! It is indeed - nearly as northeast as you can get! Nothing compares to that light.
