Item Description
Beginning of a Day, Ottawa River, 2022, oil, 26 in x 38 in
Inspiration for this painting came from seeing and experiencing something beautiful, something so captivating that it took my breath away. Last summer, along the Ottawa River, nature delivered the most unique relationship of shapes and harmonyn of colour which created instant excitement and spontaneous need to explore and capture nature’s powerful beauty.
Beginning of a Day, Ottawa River, 2022, huile, 26 po x 38 po
L'inspiration pour cette peinture m'est venue du témoignage et de l'expérience de quelque chose de beau et de si captivant que j'en ai eu le souffle coupé. Le long de la rivière des Outaouais, l'été dernier, la nature m'a offert une formation unique et des couleurs si harmonieuses qui ont créé une excitation instantanée et un besoin spontané d'explorer et de capturer la puissante beauté de la nature.
