Painting the beautiful things I see in nature and old buildings is the focus of much of my work. Wildlife is one of my favorite subjects to paint as are landscapes and still life. There never is time to "do it all" but it's great fun trying! Enjoy looking and questions and comments are always welcome...pwhitacre@att.net or phone 865-932-6729.

Pemaquid Point Lighthouse
Standing at only 38 feet tall, Pemaquid Point Lighthouse is one of the shortest lights along the coast of Maine. But however vertically challenged it may be, it sits 79 feet above the ocean and claims some of the most dramatic views along the coast. Ample parking, picnic tables and climbing on the rocks surrounding the lighthouse make this a popular spot for visitors. Built in 1827 and rebuilt in 1857, the lighthouse provides an informative museum housing artifacts of Maine lighthouses and the fishing and lobster industries.
