#3 – Green Fire at Dusk

Calmness at the lake-house after a busy family day. This painting features Lake Rosseau in Muskoka Ontario. The moon is bright and the stars are clearly visible. In nature when artificial light is absent, the cosmic palette above is always striking. When you have the opportunity to view the night sky without any urban interference it is inspiring to see the vibrancy of the night sky above. The sky and lake are both painted in layers of deep cerulean blue. The far reaching white pine is detailed in sap green and brown iron oxide. The soft forms and delicate linework is indicative of my early work prior to the development of my iconic linework method.
