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.

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!

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!
