Diamond Head Lighthouse

The Diamond Head cone silhouette may be Hawaii's most famous landmark and was formed by a now-dormant volcano. This lighthouse stands and shines on this well-known location on the island of Oahu near Honolulu. The lighthouse is still in use today and sends out a warning to ships at sea. The sky is crystal clear and the waters below are brilliant blue. I hope you have enjoyed this quick trip to Hawaii. Watercolor.

My first reaction was, "Oh! Nice! I love the colors and composition" and my second reaction was, "Heyyy, I think I know this place!" LOL I lived on Oahu for 12 years and this brings back memories. Great painting!
