Jupiter Lighthouse



I give instruction in watercolor painting at a Senior Living Community.  This is a painting we did together using an easy technique to ensure that everyone had a 'straight' lighthouse.  I cut out a silhouette of a lighthouse from cardstock and the class used it to trace the perfect shape for their painting.  Everyone then added water, foliage, a bit of land and maybe a boat or dock, whatever they felt like.  I have to say that all the paintings came out quite nice.  For my reference I used a photo I snapped from across the water while dining in a favorite restaurant.
