Judy, This painting is of my granddaughter. We started climbing the southern New Jersey lighthouses together last summer when she was 3 years old. Surprisingly even at her very young age ... she was hooked instantly. She wants to climb them all ... and climb them again & again. We now have many memories of enjoying a day together on the coast & learning about history together. The experiences while visiting the lighthouses ... & seeing them anew through the eyes of a young child ... inspired me to write a series of books about them. Each book is written in rhyme & not only gives a little history of each lighthouse but also teaches the importance of protecting our maritime history. It's been a very fun & exciting project so far. The first book is just about to be released. Hoping to add it to my website soon. Thanks for your kind words & interest in my book. nancy
