Title
Umpqua River Lighthouse July 2010
Artist
Anne Norskog
Medium
Painting - Hand-drawn Digital Painting
Description
I was contacted by the "Save Umpqua Light" folks whose mission is to save the beautiful Fresnel Lens that has been at this lighthouse in Oregon for decades. It is red and white and quite unique. I am delighted to dedicate this painting to their most worthy of causes.
This lighthouse was designed by Carl W. Leick, the German engineer who brought, "Light", to so many of our ports here in the Pacific Northwest. This pretty lighthouse is an architectural twin to the lighthouses at Elliot Bay in Seattle and Heceta Head in Oregon. Each site customized the design to fit the needs of their location.

Hi Anne, I can not remember but I hope I thanked you for the nice comment you posted on my "Back Canals of Venice" piece. I've been off line for a few weeks. Your lighthouse work is delightful, refreshing and uplifting -- keep it up.

Thank you Lana. I painted this one for the Umpqua Conservation Group in Oregon. They are hoping to save the very unique Fresnel lens from being replaced by the Coast Guard. This lens is red and white and was built in France more than a century ago.

Thank you Chris. The folks at the lighthouse group tell me their big festivities will be at the end of September. I can hardly wait to get to go. :-D
