Island Lights

Island Lights, 6x6 inches - oil on panel - Sold
My favorite time of day is during the golden hour... when the sun sets low in the sky in the evening. This is my attempt to capture that warm glowing light and the feeling of that moment.

  1. Douglas, I really like this painting. You've captured the late day light beautifully.
    Something just for you:

    "I've shined for years or'e Ocracoke
    Guiding simple sea-faring folk.
    Now I shine or'e tides of people
    Who come to gaze upon my steeple."

  3. Attempt? Attempt? You are too modest, sir. That light (and the feeling that goes with it) must now consider itself captured!
