The inspiration for this painting is the view of Mount Begbie in Revelstoke, BC.  The trees in the foreground are somewhat stylized and they give the viewer the impression that they are standing like guardians with their arms outspread. The water and land below is the estuary of the Columbia River.

This painting was started at the beginning of the COVID19 pandemic when we were advised that we should be Social Distancing.  Immersing myself in the joyful task of completing a 48x48 painting was a wonderful way to fill all the sudden uninterrupted time.
