"Lighthouse"

Lighthouse:

This is one of my favorites. Why? It is captivating. I could feel this painting, literally. 

I had to stop what I was doing as this tingly feeling washed over me. My feet seem to disappear, sand cascading over them. A warmth radiates over me. Sweet-salty flavor fills my breath. My long dark locks, take flight, swirling, whirling from my face into space. Seagulls clattering way above, where my eyes roam across the sky. White billowy shapes form and groove, shaking up the sky as if taking on a life of their own. Is it a lion or a horse? 

Roaring, whooshing, gurgling, and fizzing. Echoes in my head. Look out, rogue wave in coming. Inhale. Freshness. Exhale. Calmness. Eyes open. Home again.

This piece is not one of my original designs. It is a copy of another artist who's identity is unknown. I loved the layout and the colors of this piece. Since I had no official art training I learned by copying artwork from other artist. Most times, I would discover inspiration online or from books. Then challenging myself to recreate the artwork. If my painting turned out with similar likeness then I knew I was getting it. I was satisfied with the end result of this piece and gifted to a very close friend.
