One is only safe getting out of the car when they are hibernating. Then there is the monarch migration - the bushes are covered during "the season."

My favorites among the ones I've done are those incorporating water, but that's not always possible given the way a lighthouse is situated (perched atop a cliff, for instance). I love the ones in which the lighthouse itself is incorporated within the keeper's house. Add a few flowers and trees, all within a design area of 2-1/2 x 5 inches, and that would be my perfect lighthouse!Anne Stradalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14588177974023315406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239506123724138426.post-26698409829545157702009-04-14T09:16:00.000-07:002009-04-14T09:16:00.000-07:00Anne,
That is a very nice one.
I have a question...Anne,<br /><br />That is a very nice one.<br /><br />I have a question for you since you have researched and painted so many lighthouses.<br /><br />If you were to create an ideal lighthouse scene for yourself where you could add whatever details you desire, what would it be?<br /><br />I know that mine would require a bigger canvas to contain everything I would like to see in it (lol)<br /><br />Pierrette =^..^=Love to Stitch 99https://www.blogger.com/profile/08717611751588945815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239506123724138426.post-47543266989946286852009-04-13T19:53:00.000-07:002009-04-13T19:53:00.000-07:00Sanibel is one of my most favorite places down the...Sanibel is one of my most favorite places down there, due to the zillions of seashells. However, this lighthouse looks more like an oil derrick. It will be interesting to see what you do with it.Possibilities, Etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00301188397987608400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1239506123724138426.post-89554738404386553382009-04-13T18:42:00.000-07:002009-04-13T18:42:00.000-07:00Excellent!
