I took my inspiration from the gorgeous sunset in this image here.
Stamped the lighthouse first, sponged on a bit of gray, then masked it,
masked and sponged the water and stamped with texture,
masked the water and the sun and sponged the sky,
created an island for the lighthouse (more masking),
stamped trees and sentiment,
sponged birds with a stencil,
spritzed/blotted whole scene with water and splattered with white acrylic paint and black
