The Needles Lighthouse fridge magnet has been designed from original art by Emily Ward, an artist from the North East. This art fridge magnet has been locally hand pressed in Emily's art studio.
Emily’s painting of The Needles Lighthouse captures the power of the sea and the steadfast presence of the lighthouse. The lighthouse base has hints of yellow which give the lighthouse tower a weatherred and sea-beaten look.
The rough angular shapes of the jagged chalk stacks of the Needles contrast with the cylindrical style of the lighthouse.
Emily’s sky is painted in a range of blues with wispy clouds that add texture and atmosphere to this art fridge magnet.
