Limited edition 1 of 15.

Part of an ongoing series exploring movement, place, and the historical depth of Nova Scotia’s landscapes, this piece is inspired by the Fortress of Louisbourg. It reflects a site shaped by resilience, conflict, and time, where history is embedded within the land and its enduring structures.

The composition distills the fortress, surrounding terrain, and sky into layered bands of color, where strength and motion coexist. The flowing landscape contrasts with the solidity of the architecture, creating a balance between permanence and transformation.

Developed through a refined digital painting process, the work emphasizes bold color structure, clean geometry, and controlled transitions. Printed on premium canvas, it carries a rich visual texture through its depth of color and precise edges, offering a powerful and grounded presence within contemporary and curated spaces.
