About Olivia Jane Williams Books
It is from a mariners' point of view that I grew to appreciate lighthouses, while living on the southeast coast and sailing the waters around Georgia and Florida. Seeing lighthouses from the water makes one more aware of their particular importance. After moving to Washington state, I was intrigued with the rocky coasts and the turbulent waters of the Pacific Ocean. Being a watercolor artist, it was a natural evolution that my visits to the lighthouses, the photographs I took, and my familiarity with their architecture and surroundings would result in a series of Washington and Oregon lighthouse paintings, which became the material for this coloring collection. It is a cumulative product of twenty years of travel, intrigue, and creativity. As an artist, I am blessed to have had the opportunity to see and sense the beauty of both the East and West coasts of the United States and to incorporate my experience and observation into works of art. Thank you for letting me share them with you.
