Eagle Harbor Lighthouse

"Eagle Harbor Light" 

8"x10" Original Watercolor And Pen On Paper 

SOLD 

This is the lighthouse at Eagle Harbor up in the Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. It is my favorite of the Michigan lighthouses (and there are quite a few!) It's been around for nearly 150 years safely guiding ships into Eagle Harbor from the temperamental waters of Lake Superior.

 I really enjoy the rocks up in the Keweenaw.  I know it sounds like a funny thing to say but most people think of rocks as gray. A visit to nearly anywhere in the Keweenaw Peninsula will quickly prove this theory wrong. The rocks along the Lake Superior shoreline come in a multitude of colors and textures. Near Copper Harbor and Eagle Harbor the rocks are lovely shades of browns and reds. As an artist it's fun to find all the colors that really make up the rock. That was my favorite part of this painting. 

LOGO Design

I don't know if I've ever mentioned it before but I do logo design if you're ever interested. I treat it as a commission and we work together to come up with the best possible image to represent your group/business etc. 

These are some of the logos I've done so far. They have been reprinted on all sorts of materials, such as brochures, letterheads and t-shirts. They make for a nice change of pace from a larger painting and it forces me to think in a different way. The top image is for a group called F.O.C.A.S. here in the U.P. They help people to get there pets spayed and neutered when they can't afford it so that there are less animals turning up at the shelters. The second image is for Copper Harbor Arts at the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula in the U.P. 

Keep me in mind if you ever need a logo! I'd love to talk with you about it! 

Have A Great Weekend! 

Hunters Point

Another view of Hunter's Point, overlooking Lake Superior. A beautiful spot to stand or sit for a while and just let the sun wash over you. It's so peaceful and quiet.

Also, I wanted to let everyone know I will be participating in Kalamazoo Michigan's December Art Hop Event. I'm very excited to announce that my work will be shown at "Earthly Delights" downtown on Kalamazoo Mall for the month of December. There will be an artist reception on Friday, December 7th from 5-9pm. The event is open to the public and is really a lot of fun. Please stop by! I'd love to meet you!

Hunter's Point North

Continuing with a few more paintings from my Copper Harbor series. This is a painting of "Hunters Point" on the north side looking out over Lake Superior and an incoming storm. The wind has stopped and there is a calm as the storm moves closer, the temperature begins to drop and in the stillness of the north all you can hear is the lapping of waves against the rocks.

Fisherman's Daughter

This is another intriguing place located in Copper Harbor. It's called The Fisherman's Daughter. They have a little store where they sell all sorts of jewelry and crafts made by the owner....the fisherman's daughter! Attached to the store is a fish market and here you will find everything from fillets to fish sausage. (Pretty tasty stuff! ). I believe they also charter boats that will take you out into Lake Superior to do some fishing of your own!

Copper Harbor Light

SOLD

Last year my husband and I traveled to the very end of Michigan. We drove all the way up the Keweenaw Peninsula to a gorgeous town called Copper Harbor. We spent a blissful four days there exploring the sights and searching for agates along the shoreline of Lake Superior. 

This is a painting of the Copper Harbor Lighthouse, seen across the bay from the visitor parking.
