Beacon of Serenity

This oil painting portrays a tranquil Bra d’Or lakeside scene bathed in the soft hues of sunrise or sunset. The Kidston lighthouse, its structure simple yet iconic, stands as a beacon of calm against the warm, diffused glow of the sky. The radiant colors—shades of peach, gold, and lavender—blend seamlessly into the soft blue tones of distant hills, creating a dreamy, layered composition.

In the foreground, the reflective water mirrors the sky’s warm palette, with rippling brushstrokes adding a gentle texture and sense of movement. A lush, tree-covered island stretches across the middle ground, its vibrant greens contrasting beautifully with the warmer tones of the water and sky. The scene radiates peace and natural beauty, evoking a moment of quiet contemplation by the water’s edge.

The delicate balance of color and texture captures the ephemeral beauty of light and landscape, making this piece a celebration of serenity and timeless coastal charm.
