Welcome to Sunday Sketches, this piece is called 'The Lighthouse' inspired by a photo I saw recently. I added a sunrise. It's (8 1/2" x 11") in watercolour pencil and crayon.
I took a photo hoping the pinks in the sunrise might be more visible than in the scan above:

Beautiful!!
Very nice artwork!
I've been drawn to lighthouses the past few days too! Must be something in the creative air. Aren't they fun to paint?
Lighthouses...love them!!!
Your sketch is very lovely and I do see the pink in the photo as compared to the scan~
Happy Sunday Christine :)
That's a pretty picture. I bought an oil painting of a lighthouse with a sunset in the background. It hangs in David's room.
I've always loved lighthouses.
Great sketch
All the best Jan
beautiful castle you did today Paula!
Lovely illustration of the lighthouse ~ thanks,
Wishing you a Happy Week ahead ~ ^_^
great art
a piece filled with calm and early morning light. Very nice.
What a wonderful, peaceful scene! I love the pinks, I'm glad to see the additional image of your painting.
lovely and peaceful!
reminded me the lighthouse by Virginia Woolf's leading lady who resemble to this through her personality.
love it!
This is beautiful! And it's interesting to see how different the colors look on a photo and a scan. I'm currently reading a book about an elderly woman who lives in a lighthouse in France.
There's something about a lighthouse and you've captured this one beautifully. It's funny because I have a lighthouse ornament in one of my bathrooms and I often look at it and think about painting it.
I also can see one from a top bedroom window if I strain my neck :D
Have a great week.
lighthouses are always so inspirational. why is that? anyway...love how yours turned out.
Really wonderful, the way its been captured with all the underlying emotions.
the pink does show up better in the photo, nice piece of art :)
Isn't that fun?! I did a lighthouse once. One of my clients had a thing for them!!!
Great job.
A lovely art work!
My hubby and I used to say we'd love to live in a lighthouse... just something about them :D)
Nice looking one. :)
