#2555 "Parry Island Tower"

#2555 "Parry Island Tower" 11"x14"

This iconic light is on the northern tip of Parry Island - due west of the city of Parry Sound. I painted on a slippery, smooth panel and resisted the urge to push the oils around too much. 

The light was photographed by my friend Cam at 4:00 pm on Sunday September 19th, 2021 looking eastward from very near N45.347004 W80.096448 . Before COVID I had accompanied Cam on a similar SeaDoo Tour that he calls "Cam's Capture the Flags Seadoo Cruise".Cam was referring to the flagged pine trees that I love to paint. I had been in front of that rock on Franklin Island in September 2019. 

This light is a familiar beacon to all that enjoy the Georgian Bay archipelago. It was a gorgeous autumn day. This is another Ro-Lak-Tree (a name I made up) Painting. I am repeating the Group of Seven Canadian Identity adventure of painting Canadian rocks, lakes and trees during COVID 2021.
