Title
Cape Disappointment At Fort Canby Washington
Artist
Anne Norskog
Medium
Painting - Hand Drawndigital Lighthouse Painting
Description
Two states claim this magnificent guardian: it sits on the mouth of the Columbia River as it dumps into the Pacific Ocean. Both Oregon and Washington advertize this beauty in their state tourist literature.
These waters are some of the most treacherous in the world. Naval rescue teams from every country come here to train. This lighthouse is an active U.S. Coast Guard Station and is manned by the Coast Guard.
The Cape Disappointment Lighthouse is at Fort Canby near Ilwaco, Washington. It has been on duty since October 15, 1856. The light was first lit with a first order Fresnel lens but this was changed to a fourth order Fresnel lens and that is still in service.
It sits at a latitude of: 46.2758; and a longitude of: -124.05216 for GPS guidance.
Every piece of art in my gallery is original; not scanned; not a photograph. Using only the computer mouse, I draw every line, add every bit of shading, highlights, blending, and refining to finish a piece. All of the art is started in Microsoft Paintbrush. The finishing process is done using Photoshop Elements.
Every piece is printed using only the finest of professional materials available, by a professional printing house. Rigorous quality control is employed to guarantee a satisfactory work of fine art.
Fine canvas and museum-quality signed, numbered and authenticated paper prints are available from the gallery.
