This view reminds me of my grandparents, as they used to sit and eat sandwiches, looking out at this view. It was a favourite place for them to visit, during their retirement years and my sister and I often went there with them, as children. It is a beautiful and dramatic view of the English Channel, on a clear Spring day, you can see for miles around. The calming scene is full of life and colour, with the fields in bloom overlooking the calm sea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe lighthouse stands in isolation, vulnerable to the weather, a protector of the coast, and especially in the dark. All night it casts its light out to sea, as a warning to passing boats, protecting them from harm. It reminds me of God and how he is always looking out for us, even when we are asleep.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtwork details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCanvas size:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40x 30 cm (16\" x 12\")\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCanvas depth: \u003c\/strong\u003e1.8\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ecm (0.79\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOil paint\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSurface:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCotton treated stretched Canvas\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDate of creation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e14th January 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVarnish:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Gamblin Gamvar Satin varnish (12 September 2026)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReady to Hang\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs framing is a personal choice, please note that all paintings are sold and shipped as unframed, as standard shipping practice for Painted canvases. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis painting features a 2cm gallery-wrap profile and arrives ready to hang, unframed with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eD-rings\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and high-quality \u003cb\u003epicture wire\u003c\/b\u003e on the back of the wooden stretcher bars\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
