15th Annual Fire Island Lighthouse Show

Tonight was the reception for the 15th Annual Fire Island Lighthouse Show and the night couldn't have been more perfect. Most of the paintings are related to the sea in some way. Here are the two paintings I exhibited in the show. Both are 8 x 10 and were done en plein air at the lighthouse.

The exhibit is held inside the lighthouse where racks are set up to hang the paintings and photos. There isn't a lot of room to take photos, but I was able to take a few.

We headed outside to watch the sunset over the bay....along with a few other people.

Bayport Water View & Lighthouse Art Show

We had a fairly overcast day with showers threatening so I headed down by the water in Bayport.  There was a nice gazebo nearby just in case it started to rain....but I lucked out.

Last Thursday evening was the Fire Island Lighthouse Annual Art Show reception. I had 2 pieces accepted into the show. It is always a fun show to do and the reception is always lovely with snacks and wine. If you are lucky and have a nice sunset it only adds to make the night more special. Unfortunately rain was threatening but several of us went outside and like high school kids did some fun photos. Several of my friends also had work in the show and we always enjoy looking at the work we all did. Everything in the show has a marine theme.

Here are a few photos we took outside.

Me and my friend, Joan...yes, another Joan.

Here I am with one of my paintings from the show. I was just informed today that this painting (the one on the top) sold. Yay!!!

Here is a better view of both of my paintings.
