Along the Atlantic Coast, lie the states of Maryland and Virginia. The area is known for its unspoiled barrier islands, the Chesapeake Bay, wildlife refuges and abundance of nature. This unique environment attracts artists of all types who visit and create works of art based on their observations. Popular subjects include the world famous wild Chincoteague ponies, waterfowl, shorebirds, fish and other wildlife.
One Virginia artist uses aerial photography to capture images of nature. Highcamera Aerial Photographic Service offers prints that include aerial photographs of the 2009 Chincoteague Pony roundup, Virginia barrier islands, coastal towns and Chesapeake Bay destinations. The artist showcases the collection in a series of online galleries within the Highcamera website. The rare images are available from the artist as signed and framed prints in a variety of sizes.
Aerial photographs of the wild ponies show the herd led along the beach at Assateague Island in preparation of the 2009 Chincoteague Pony Swim, Penning and Auction. The 2009 roundup was the first time that aerial photographs were taken of this world famous event. Aerial images were taken by the artist after an extensive permitting process by the National Park Service and Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge. The world famous Chincoteague ponies are rounded up annually during the Pony Penning on the last Wednesday and Thursday of July. To view samples of these stunning images, visit Highcamera.com.
Another local artist, Wally Makuchal, Jr. captures images of wildlife thru painting. The artist offers limited edition prints of state duck stamps. In 2009 the artist offered prints entitled 'Icey Refuge'. The prints depict a pair of Blue-winged Teal enjoying a quiet winter morning alongside a partially frozen Delmarva pond. The original work took top honors at the 2009-2010 Maryland Migratory Gamebird Stamp Design Competition held in Laurel, MD, also known as Maryland's 'duck stamp contest'. The Maryland duck stamp program is the fourth oldest of it's kind in the U.S. and is in it's thirty-fifth year of raising funds to preserve and restore precious waterfowl and other wildlife in the state.
The edition size is limited to 1400 standard and 160 artist proofs reproduced in fade resistant inks on acid-free paper. The image is approximately 7 by 9.75 inches and overall paper size is 12 by 14 inches. Prints are signed and numbered by the artist, and enclosed in an acid-free protective folder. Original pencil and color remarques will be available on either edition. Prints will be available in early October of 2009.
Wally Makuchal Jr. has won several state stamp competitions. He won Maryland in 1999, the Florida duck stamp in 1996 and in the same year, the Maryland trout stamp. Wally owns and operates Makuchal's Signs in Girdletree, MD and paints in his spare time.
A 2009-2010 Maryland Duck Stamp Prints page showcases the latest print as well as earlier duck stamp designs. More information is available at www.makuchalsigns.com.
