Resting on the Wapiti

Acrylic on canvas.

24x24x1.50"

This painting is drawn from a memory of a customary canoe trip down the Wapiti River in Alberta, Canada. At this bend, the water slowed and offered easy access to the riverbank. It became a natural place to pause, pulling the canoe ashore for a simple lunch before continuing downstream. The scene holds that brief moment of rest and quiet connection with the land, suspended between journeys.
