I made a few paintings, all on top of eachother.  I like how it started out, gold and blue. I'll explore this composition again.  I added the mountains, trees, everything. I was in my flow, remembering a breathtaking setting on a beautiful camping trip in Jasper National Park. Fun to paint, but it didn't communicate how I was feeling.  so I added layers.  rub, daub, sponge, scratch, brush  more layers, more texture.  the finished piece. it says what I wanted to say. hopefully somebody speaks the same language ;) "I Hear the River", an acrylic painting on stretched canvas. This piece speaks of the restorative and ever changing beauty of nature. While drinking in the scene that inspired the painting, I thought upon the vast spaces we enjoy in Canada and our responsibility to approach the land and its resources with respect, gratitude, wisdom and generosity.
