Marblehead Lighthouse from Another View

This is a view of Marblehead Lighthouse from the rocks below it on the north side. It's an angle that eliminates a lot of the distractions you see from above. It's also an angle that would be almost impossible to paint en plein air so I used a photograph.

The last few years I have had a few paintings in a gallery at Lakeside, Ohio. I haven't had much success with mainstream art; the only thing they sell of mine are paintings of Marblehead and cottages. It's a tourist area so that 's probably why. You don't go on vacation and buy a still life painting.

Although I am tempted to try a sail boat this year.
