CG44363 at LaPush, Washington by Steve Mapel

The artist writes" "I'm very impressed by the difficult and often dangerous job done by the men and women of the U. S. Coast Guard. This painting is dedicated to the lost crewmembers of CG44363 at LaPush. I have tried to depict a feeling of the tension crews experience heading out on rescue missions by showing the boat heading west through rough surf, toward ominous clouds and an unknown objective.
