Hello there. Hope you've had a great week.
This week's illustration has a touch of nostalgia for me...

When I was a teenager, we lived by the sea. And on clear nights, you could see the lighthouse at Portland (Dorset), a good 30 miles away, but beaming steadily through the darkness. There was always something very solid and comforting about that, even on land, and in times that were so much more certain.
All these thoughts of lighthouses got me to thinking about how it still feels important that each of still remembers to *shine* brightly whenever and as much we feel able.
And so the design was born. It's a hand drawn "traditional", line and wash watercolour/watercolour, but finished off digitally. So a true hybrid, really.
Hope it sparks something for you too (and there are more details about it here, if it "floats your boat," as it were. (No puns were intended when I began that sentence, but hey, who could resist by the end? :-) )
Have a lovely weekend, in any event.
More soon.
