Welcome to ” The Lighthouse Series” begun by the artist in September 2004. A lighthouse always stirs a thought of safety, safe haven, guiding light and the words to the great hymn which say in essence “were it not for the lighthouse where would this soul be.” Lighthouses saved lives. It is very difficult for us, as we enter the twenty-first century, to appreciate the difficulties faced by seamen in the days before planned navigational aids. But going to sea is always potentially dangerous – even today. Think back to the earliest times in history when sailors had very primitive boats. In daylight, they had no way of knowing where they were, once out of sight of land. Not surprisingly, they tended to keep within sight of land, recognising geographical features on the shore to find their way. With experience or good information, it was possible to identify features of the land. The trained eye could also spot the swirling waters associated with hidden rocks. The vast majority of travel by sea was entirely local, sailors knew their own waters intimately and generally knew how to avoid most dangers. This idea of using features on the land that sailors could recognise was very useful indeed and gave rise to the idea of a beacon or daymark. (Note that a beacon does not necessarily have to be fire or light – only a visible feature.) Of course, some things were more readily recognised than others, especially buildings and other constructions. Churches and other religious buildings were often intended to be impressive and because they were large and often tall, they became features easily recognised from the sea. Eventually, tall structures were built that were specifically intended to be seen easily from the sea. We call these daymarks. By night, sailors were better off in the open ocean where the stars could provide direction and they were far from the dangers of dark, rugged coastlines and submerged reefs. However, it was soon realised that lights shown from the shore could be used to help them navigate and to find their way back home. Hence we have lighthouses.
