Here we see a night view of the historic landmark lighthouse at Split Rock - originally known as Stony Point - on Lake Superior in Minnesota. Completed in 1910 by the US Lighthouse Service, it operated until 1939, when the Coast Guard took over patrol. Reimagined and painted from a photo shared by Steve Hamburg.

RC, the focal point of this lighthouse surrounded by a rich array of dark and deep colors is a world of dreams and paradise for me. Immediate feelings of safety there and security. Your descriptions are wonderful reading that set the narrative as I view your work. F/L
RC DeWinter replied:
Glad it resonated with you, Randy. Having grown up and lived much of my life a stone's throw from various bodies of water, I find lighthouses a deeply iconic symbol of many things. I appreciate your encouragement, thank you.
Bunny Clarke
A beautiful, yet melancholic story showing the way we try to work through all things in life. Friendships, duty and creativity. Gorgeous painting as well. Love how you created the sky and the lighting on the lighthouse.
Nancy Kane Chapman
How regal with gorgeous lighting, how monumental the prose! F/L+

I enjoyed the entire experience with this one, Nancy, both the recreation and the writing, thanks for the validation.

RC DeWinter replied:
Glad you like what I've done here, Roger. The original I worked from was a daylight shot, so I am so pleased my transformation feels natural. Thanks so much.
