Artist’s Note: Guiding Light
This painting was created for someone I deeply love —
my husband, who has always been drawn to lighthouses.
To him, they are more than just landmarks.
They are symbols of unwavering presence, quiet strength,
and the courage to shine for others, no matter the storm.
As I painted this, I thought of him —
how he moves through life with grace and steadiness,
how he gives love with the same calm light he admires.
I offer this painting now to others as a reflection of that same energy —
a reminder that true light doesn’t demand attention.
It simply stands, steady and sure,
so others can find their way home.

For the Guiding Light
You stand like a lighthouse —
quiet, steady, true.
Not loud, but always shining,
so others can find their way.
This painting carries that light —
because you’ve been mine.
