new pine in among shoreline grasses

Watercolour / acrylic painted directly on gessoed panel.

36x24x2"

this painting is closer to a self portrait than anything else. working the Canadian winter have found that it really has nothing to do with how far north one goes, rather with being able to see n feel ‘the wild’ of the place one is in at any given moment. I want you to wander thru visually stunning moments where I found myself breaking trail was visually stunning but then I just said that. the idea of being able to walk into / walk up to an open stream just ahead of you is one that remains fresh each time you gaze on it.
