My inspiration for the painting of St. Johns River Lighthouse was its initial close proximity to the St. Johns River. It is the longest river in
Florida. It is one of the few rivers in the world that flow north. The river and the door are hidden in the painting. The door of the lighthouse was buried to build the naval station runway.
Mayport Lighthouse Association is planning to relocate the lighthouse to the Mayport Village’s historic waterfront, It is the ideal setting for the lighthouse. It will restore the lighthouse to its former glory and the public will finally enjoy easy access.
I’m supporting the association campaign, “Save the St. Johns River Lighthouse.” Ten percent of proceeds from the purchase from this painting will be donated to Mayport Lighthouse Association.
