Description
This swampy landscape is located in a most unlikely place – the Outer Cape along the Cape Cod National Seashore at White Cedar Swamp. The loop trail starts near the Marconi Station Site and winds through a forest of wind-stunted pitch pines and scrub oaks. Another level stretch wanders through a classic pine-oak forest and, eventually, into the stand of Atlantic white cedars. These impressive evergreens, can grow to 90 feet tall. These trees were prized for their wood by early New England settlers who used them for everything from fence posts to roof rafters to organ pipes. Gunpowder for the Revolutionary War came from white-cedar charcoal. Logged heavily, only a few stands like the one here remain on the Cape. This shady, picturesque area is located on the former site of Camp Wellfleet, a U.S. Army base. Trailside markers identify many of the common plants, and the park is populated by many forest birds, as well. The swamp usually has standing water, as most swamps do.
The original photograph has been digitally enhanced with a paint application to create this painterly version.
I am an exhibiting artist in southwest Florida and my art has been exhibited in galleries in Florida, Georgia and North Carolina and is in collections nationwide. I create abstract photography, mixed media photo painting, acrylic mixed media, and acrylic paintings. Many would make great decorative throw pillows or shower curtains. I've even had a couple abstracts made into my personal cell phone covers. Please check out my Facebook page Doodleng Art by Sharon Eng for announcements and more information about my art.
