Sanibel Island Lighthouse

Sanibel Island is on the Gulf Coast Of Florida and this is the oldest lighthouse in the state. I visited the island with my old friend Dan a few weeks ago and I thought this was really interesting so I painted it.
The lighthouse was built in 1884 and has been in continous use since.
8"x10" oil on canvas panel.  If your interested in owning this, please visit my Etsy store at www.etsy.com/shop/BillsArtShop

Bird of Paradise

Stephen Magsig - Postcards From Detroit

Believe it or not, this is a painting by one of my favorite artists Stephen Magsig. He has a blog called Postcards From Detroit where he posts a new painting every day. His daily paintings are not this large, as this one is 42"x36", but they all have the color and super realistic look. I think the guy is amazing.
