"Little Bad Boy Lighthouse" SOLD

From a recent sunny morning

Linnyland painting adventure at Witty's Lagoon.

I decided to paint the snow capped Olympic Mountains

with the Race Rocks lighthouse in front.

The lighthouse was too far away for me to see any of it's features

but I thought, "No problem, I've painted it before

and I can do it from memory". (Ha ha.)

When I finished painting I could see that something wasn't

quite right with the lighthouse tower.

It wasn't until I was back in my studio, and I had looked

through the binoculars at the Race Rocks Lighthouse,

that I realized I'd given the tower an extra white stripe.

Ah...that's why the little lighthouse

sports the "convict in striped pajamas look"!

So...after some concern and careful consideration

I've come to understand that the little lighthouse

hasn't done anything too seriously

bad or wrong - really, the only crime (if one can call it a crime) 
that he committed

was that he wanted to be a little bit different -

and that might explain the reason that he stands out

from the crowd the way that he does.
