Love this, so evocative, Paul

Yes like it Paul. Have been to Brixham a few times but not for a long time now.

Super lighthouse and I like how it dominates the whole painting Paul.

Great lighthouse and colours Paul. Very Brixham !

Like this a lot!!

I agree with Carole ref the lighthouse being dominant in the composition Paul, lovely piece.

Red sails I the sunset too.one of my favourite spots.

I do like lighthouses and I do like this one… I see you have Brixham trawler in there as well.

Thank you all for your very kind comments they are much appreciated.

Good one Paul

Lovely lighthouse, Paul and love the evening sun effect!

Thank you Anne for your kind comment.

Great lighthouse Paul. Lovely colours.

Thank you Denise for your kind comment.

Lovely and fresh, seaside colours. Like the composition Paul.

A favourite walk of mine along the long breakwater to this lighthouse. Thanks for painting it as it's a reminder that I should visit my mum again who lives very near the harbour!

Thank you Carole and Steve for your kind comments. I’m sure your mum will be very pleased to see you Steve , I would not tell her that a painting reminded you to visit , you will get no cake with your tea.

A4 ish watercolour of Brixham harbour lighthouse at sunset. The boat in the background is one of the last Brixham sailing trawler now use as a private boat and sailing experience. Both my granddaughters love Brixham and will be holidaying there soon , something they have done for several years. The scene is made up the lighthouse is made of metal and is painted white, I have shown the rust in places and tried to reflect the sunset colours.
