White Shoal Light

Lake Michigan

Located in Lake Michigan, the White Shoal Light, built in 1912, is 20 miles west of the Mackinac Bridge, which separates Michigan from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (known as the U. P.).

The light had a range up to 28 miles, with its 124 ft. height and 1.2 million candle power.  The red and white (Candy cane style) stripe is the only one of its kind in the U.S.  Cape Hatteras and St. Augustine both have black and white stripes.

While in Michigan, I painted many local landmarks for the public to recognize, with the White Shoal light being one of them.  I had painted other lighthouses, with 2 of them in Michigan, while the others were along the Florida coast. The painting was in the earlier part of my traveling career, around 1984.

Livingstone Memorial Lighthouse

Detroit, Michigan

When I was traveling and painting local landmarks, I decided to paint the Livingstone Memorial lighthouse, since I was exhibiting around the Detroit area at various times of the year.  I had a good response to other lighthouses around the country.

The lighthouse was created through the Lake Carriers Association, as he was President of the association from 1909 until his death in 1925.  The Association was a group of Large Shipping Companies that traveled the Great Lakes. It is located on the north end of Belle Isle, near Lake St. Clair.

The Lighthouse, made of marble, has a light, 84 ft. high with 11,500 candlepower, which has a 16-mile visibility on Lake St. Clair’s waters which flow into the Detroit River.

The Livingstone Memorial lighthouse was one of my early paintings of the 1980s.
