New Artwork - Lighthouse series

Last fall I tried to order some mats online for my 8x10 prints, but I ordered the wrong size by mistake, so now I have a pack of 25 8x10 mats with a 5x7 opening.
So, recently I've decided to paint some 5x7 paintings to fit in these mats. I thought doing some series would be a good exercise. My first series will be four Outer Banks lighthouses. I painted the first of these this weekend, here's how it came out. It is Ocracoke Island Lighthouse.

I painted a few more ATC's to trade with the group I belong to on line. Click on the link below to see all four. Not only does doing these miniature paintings allow me to connect with other artists all over the world, but it's also a quick way to experiment with images, materials, and composition ideas.
