Dune Shadows
This painting is one of several depicting the famous Nags Head Cottages on the Outer Banks. The row of stark, wood-shingled frame cottages compose a remarkable and evocative survival of the late 19th and early 20th-c. lifestyle of this once isolated summer coastal resort.

Keeper Originals: Watercolor Paintings and Prints was formed in 2003 after the artist, Lloyd Childers, left her lighthouse
keeping duties on the
Outer Banks and retired to Hampstead, NC, near Wilmington, to begin painting in earnest. After a career in State Government, she moved to Corolla on the Outer Banks as the lighthouse keeper for Currituck Beach Lighthouse and executive director of
Outer Banks Conservationists, Inc., the nonprofit group that restored the keepers' house, lighthouse and
lighthouse compound in Corolla. Having been a "keeper" for five years and hoping that her paintings would be "keepers" the name Keeper Originals seemed fitting. Lloyd enjoys the watercolor medium for her paintings, which she has professionally reproduced in art prints of various sizes and note cards. The art prints are handsomely matted to fit standard sized frames.
