About the work
I enjoy painting lighthouses and attempt to present them in non-traditional ways. In this painting I wanted to appreciate how a lighthouse is little more than a curiosity on a clear day, dwarfed by its surroundings, dwarfed by the sea, its purpose only a concept. I paint it from a high vantage, juxtaposed upon a large Pacific Ocean. There is a metaphor here that reminds us that there are greater things than the sentinels in our lives.

about the artist
byRobert Deem
Windsor, CA
A gallery owner once told me, "Paint what you love and not what you think people will buy and they will be drawn to your work." Since then I have tried to follow his advice. At the same time I realized that what attracts me to other artists' work is the love and care that I see in it. I live and paint in Pfafftown, North Carolina and in Windsor, California spending about half the year in each. I do portraiture, pen and ink, but mostly oil on canvas.
