14" X 22" Watercolor

Porreca depicts a subject that is nostalgic to New Englanders – a rocky coastline, clear blue waters, and the quintessential lighthouse. The colorful palette in the foreground – with its bright blues, fresh tans, and a splash of terra cotta red rooftops – contrasts with the grey and murky sky in the background. Her watercolors add a new layer of texture to the choppy waters as well as the misty clouds above, reminding the viewer of the warning the “Boston Light” serves to sailors.
