Get swept away by "Beacon in the Mist," another enchanting acrylic painting that captures the charm and mystery of a lighthouse standing proudly amidst a swirl of mist and waves.
Measuring 16 x 20 inches, this piece transports you straight to the rocky shores of Peggy's Cove, where the lighthouse becomes a sentinel of both nostalgia and adventure.
The lighthouse itself, with its slightly weathered look, stands tall and stately, portrayed among a stormy and energetic background.
Crowning the top is a vibrant red roof that pops with energy and warmth, like a guardian’s feisty hat! The swirling background, infused with blues and whites, creates an atmosphere teeming with motion, almost as if you can feel the sea breeze and hear the waves crashing around you.
The textural brushstrokes add layers of depth, blending realism with a touch of whimsical abstraction that makes the scene feel both real and fantastical.
Created plein air on the rugged coastline during the 2024 Peggy's Cove Festival of the Arts, this piece captures a moment in time, a dance of elements where sea meets sky, and reality mingles with dreams. It's a beacon not just in the mist, but in the heart, sparking curiosity and wanderlust with every glance.
The Peggy's Cove Lighthouse is the most photographed Lighthouse in the world.
