Artist's Description

The 1868 lighthouse depicted on Sapelo Island was not the first or even the last to stand on the southern tip of the barrier island. The 19th century lighthouse was actually out of service for close to a century. It was damaged in a hurricane in 1898. The brick lighthouse sat in ruins for decades to come while a portable metal lighthouse stood nearby. That light was eventually relocated to Michigan. In the 1890's the state of Georgia undertook restoration of the historic lighthouse, returning it to its original appearance including the original daymarker.

The beautiful old lighthouse is a landmark but not technically in service today. It is lit however. It's among the oldest brick lighthouses still standing and was built by Winslow Lewis. It was once an important navigational point for entry to the port at Darien, Georgia.

About Mark Tisdale

Mark Tisdale

Life is full of happy surprises. After just over a decade working in the 9 to 5 cube world, I threw caution to the wind to follow my dreams of being a full time visual artist. That was five years ago! Is it easy? No, but something truly worthwhile is rarely simple. My body of work is wide ranging from photographic scenes of far away places, more near and dear locations, and more fanciful artwork. It's all crafted with a heartfelt love for finding the beauty in little captured moments. My artwork also hangs on walls near and far from private homes to businesses who have chosen to decorate with my art. Whether you've purchased one piece or a house full or you simply admire and share with your friends, your patronage of my art is...
