Art Print is from an original watercolor painting on a nautical chart by the Artist, William B. MacGregor Jr., who is known in the
New England
area as the Junkyard Artist.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Boston Light is located on Little Brewster Island in outer
Boston Harbor
,
MA
.
The first lighthouse was built in 1716 and was the first lighthouse built in what now is the
United States
.
The current lighthouse dates from 1783 and is the second oldest working lighthouse in the
U.S.
( after Sandy Hook Lighthouse in
New Jersey
)
Boston Light was the last lighthouse to still be actively staffed by the US Coast Guard until it was automated in 1998 Today there are volunteer lighthouse keepers acting as tour guides.
The structure was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1964.

Artist Statement
My painting technique incorporates “old skool” mechanical and civil drafting techniques including ruling pens, Leroy, inking the drawing and then completing it using watercolors, acrylics and gouache.
Originals and prints of my watercolors are now part of private collections throughout the
United States
, and foreign countries.
