This painting was inspired on a warm summer afternoon with a dear friend by the Bow River.



First Nations made varied use of the river for sustenance before settlers of European origin arrived, such as using its valleys in the buffalo hunt. They skillfully employed its valleys during buffalo hunts, exemplifying their resourcefulness.



The river's name, Bow, originates from the reeds that flourished along its banks, serving as raw materials for crafting bows by the First Nations. In the Blackfoot language, the river is referred to as Makhabn, signifying "river where bow reeds grow."
