This is a bit of a different post, but I just couldn't resist!
I was watching Jake's Exterior Environment Design course and when he bought up a reference image to discuss and I recognised it straight away! It's the lighthouse at Southwold, in Suffolk, England. It just happened we were going on holiday there in the next few days. I made sure I took some photos!
Here is Jake and Will talking about the image (I've added a few labels):
1 - Here I am at the actual lighthouse with my crazy frizzy camping hair and waterproofs after a 5 mile walk in the wind and rain (good old British summer!). I appear to be pointing at the lighthouse just in case you don't notice it
Number 2 on the ref image is exactly the same car that's just behind my head. (No relevance, just spotted it).
3 - Alternative POV of the lighthouse, this time from below, from the pub window, with a pint of Admans Southwold Bitter that is brewed in Admans Brewery - the blue building labelled as number 4.
5 - As its the Queen's 70th Jubilee people all over the UK have been knitting covers for the postboxes, so here is the lighthouse with a knitted lighthouse on top of the postbox. The little buildings are the pubs, not entirely sure what the snowman is for or what the lumps around the edge are.
And a bonus postbox cover just because I thought it was really good.
On a serious note Jake and Will's exterior design course is really good so I recommend it. I've not managed to do any lighthouse images yet (or any illustration for that matter) for a couple of weeks as we've been away and I have a big project on so I won't be able to in the near future unfortunately, but here are some silhouettes from previous prompt just to make this a legitimate art post relating to the course
I hope you have enjoyed your small tour of Southwold and it's lighthouse.
