Cape Hatteras light. 11x14 original pastel painting. This is one of my very favorite paintings of 2025 due to its abstract simple message plus its accurate representation. #art #pastel #ocean #lighthouse #hatteras #painting

Cape Hatteras. 11x14 original pastel painting. This is a commission that was sold to a private collector. It has a very different message than the more abstract one I posted earlier. This is a message of peace, and of safe harbor. #art #painting #hattaras #pastel #ocean #lighthouse
