Description

Isle La Motte Light is located at the northern end of Isle La Motte, Vermont. It sits at GPS coordinates: Latitude 44.906497 and Longitude -73.343444.

The first light at Isle La Motte was a lantern hung from a pine tree in 1829.

The first permanent lighthouse was a limestone tower in 1856. The parcel of land on which it sat cost $50.

The iron-clad plated tower was authorized in 1877. During the 1930s the lighthouse was replaced by a tower.

Isle La Motte Light is now owned by a private family. However, in a surprising move, in 2001, the U.S. Coast Guard, in cooperation with the private owners returned the navigational beacon to the lighthouse. It resumed service to the mariners in October 2002.

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 on a blank white page 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.

Open copies are now available on FAA with POD.
