"Lime Kiln Lighthouse" San Juan Island, lighthouse oil painting

I have painted this lighthouse many times. Last summer I spent several days in the San Juan Islands plein air painting.......I grabbed this photo out of the archives for a little warm up study . It was done on linen rag paper, a fun surface to work on but the paper really absorbs the paint at first.
 The weather is finally getting nicer, so I will be going out to paint soon.....Can't wait!

Truly warm and beautiful painting Robin. I am with you... can't wait for the weather (and the flooding) to get better so that I can paint outside!
