PLEASE NOTE: Watermarks are digital identification and will be removed when prints or items are ordered. Aurelia Ann Schanzenbacher is predominantly a self-taught artist and photographer. She describes herself as a nature/landscape photographer and a mixed media artist. Although, that defines only a portion of her body of work, since Aurelia loves immersing herself into the historical culture of the areas she photographs and paints. Aurelia enjoys traveling and most of her images come from those destinations. When looking at a subject, she looks for light, texture, shapes, and patterns that catch her eye. Anything goes in her creative post-processing. She uses textures and painterly effects if they enhance the art, photographic image and vision for the piece she is creating. In 2017, her interest expanded from photography to creating two dimensional art. Art has given Aurelia the ability to experiment in different mediums: oil paints, oil pastels, acrylics, watercolors, ink, color pencils and photographic digital artistry. While traveling, Aurelia makes a concerted effort to do quick daily drawings using mostly ink, watercolor or oil pastel. After creating art, some of her digital post-processing includes taking the drawings and enhancing colors, adding textures or transforming something less appealing into digital masterpieces. To enhance her artistry skills, Aurelia attends workshops and art classes online and offline. She continues to explore new ideas and techniques in pursuit of creating beautiful and interesting art. Aurelia has had art displayed at local galleries and online galleries . She is a member of the Maryland State Art Council, Allegany County Arts Council and Western Maryland Watercolor Society.

ABOUT THIS ARTWORK: VISTA HOUSE
Digital Artistry from photo of the Vista House. Vista House is a museum at Crown Point in Multnomah County, Oregon, that also serves as a memorial to Oregon pioneers and as a comfort station for travelers on the Historic Columbia River Highway. The site, situated on a rocky promontory, is 733 feet (223 m) above the Columbia River on the south side of the Columbia River Gorge. The octagonal stone building was designed by Edgar M. Lazarus in the style of Art Nouveau, and completed in 1918 after nearly two years of construction. Samuel Lancaster, Assistant Highway Engineer for Multnomah County in 1913, supervised the Columbia River Highway project. Lancaster’s proposal to construct a building on the summit of Crown Point was another reflection of his desire to inspire the traveler along the highway and to make the wonders of the gorge accessible. As Lancaster described it, the Crown Point promontory was the ideal site for “an observatory from which the view both up and down the Columbia could be viewed in silent communion with the infinite.” Such an observatory would also be a fitting memorial to “the trials and hardships of those who had come into the Oregon country.” And it could “serve as a comfort station for the tourist and the travelers of America’s greatest highway.” He suggested it be known as the Vista House. Majestic! It’s the only word to describe Crown Point capped by its venerable Vista House. Since 1918, this regal sight has enthralled millions of travelers. From its surrounding vantage point 733 feet above the Columbia River and overlooking the busy I-84, countless sightseers and photographers have enjoyed a step back in time and one of Oregon’s most inspiring views.
