Description

Antietam National Battlefield is a National Park Service protected area along Antietam Creek in Sharpsburg, Washington County, northwestern Maryland. It commemorates the American Civil War Battle of Antietam that occurred on September 17, 1862.

The area, situated on fields among the Appalachian foothills near the Potomac River, features the battlefield site and visitor center, a national military cemetery, stone arch Burnside's Bridge, and a field hospital museum. Today, over 330,000 people visit the park each year.
In the Battle of Antietam, General Robert E. Lee's first invasion of the North ended on this battlefield in 1862. Established as Antietam National Battlefield Site August 30, 1890, the park was transferred from the War Department August 10, 1933, and redesignated November 10, 1978. Along with all historic areas administered by the National Park Service, the battlefield was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 15, 1966. Additional documentation on the site was recorded by the National Park Service on February 27, 2009.

Antietam National Cemetery, covers 11.36 acres and contains 5,032 interments (1,836 unidentified), adjoins the park. Civil War interments started in 1867. The cemetery contains only Union soldiers from the Civil War period. Confederate dead were interred in the Washington Confederate Cemetery within Rosehill Cemetery, Hagerstown, Maryland; Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Frederick, Maryland; and Elmwood Cemetery in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. The cemetery also contains the graves of veterans and their wives from the Spanish-American War, World War I and II, and the Korean War. The cemetery was closed to additional interments in 1953. Two exceptions have been made, the first in 1978 for Congressman Goodloe Byron and the second in 2000 for the remains of USN Fireman Patrick Howard Roy who was killed in the attack on the USS Cole. The Antietam National Cemetery was transferred to the National Park Service on August 10, 1933.

Digital Painting are created with brushes on a Blank virtual canvas. IE, a canvas which has no image one it, when the artist begins.... Created by hand, stroke after stroke, creating the elements of the image you see. Just as

Id create it if using Acrylic Paint, on a blank canvas. The average digital painting takes me lover than it does to paint it on canvas, because you are not able to see the entire image at one time. Real Digital Paintings are NOT

computer generated paintings. They take literally as long to paint, as one Id paint with acrylic on a piece of canvas. Digital painting is not new, but began in the 80's. As we use no paint or chemicals it protects the

environment... When you purchase a Digital Painting.... You help protect the environment.
Contemporary Impressionist painting characteristics include relatively small, thin, yet visible brush strokes, open composition, emphasis on accurate depiction of light in its changing qualities, often accentuating the effects of

the passage of time, ordinary subject matter, inclusion of movement as a crucial element of human perception and experience, and unusual visual angles...
