Tillamook Rock Lighthouse
Seaside, Oregon

Located 1.2 miles seaward off Tillamook Head south of Seaside, the lighthouse stands 133 feet above sea level with a 62-foot tower on a basalt rock islet.  Nicknamed "Terrible Tilly", due to exposure to storm waves, it was commissioned in 1881 to help guide ships entering Columbia River.  Replaced by whistle buoy in 1957, it is the only privately owned Oregon coast lighthouse on National Register of Historic Places. It is now used as a columbarium, a storage place for ashes of the deceased, and is not open to the public.

There are ten Lighthouses along the Oregon coast, seven of which are open to the public, and one that is a private residence.   Lighthouse portraits make excellent gifts for all occasions.  Look for your favorite lighthouse or collect the whole series.  My Lighthouse note cards are available as a package of 10 cards of the featured lighthouse, or as an assortment, each package containing 1 of each rendering, plus an extra card of the featured lighthouse, in this case Tillamook Rock.  

Please visit the "Products" section of this website to view the various fine wood products and trivets that feature laser-engravings of these renderings.   I will also be adding these images to my CafePress storefront, where you will be able to order T-shirts, mousepads, calendars and more.
