Georgian Bay Rocky Shore acrylic on canvas - 36" x 24" SOLD |
I took a break from painting, in the latter part of June –
and that extended into July as I settled into cottage life in Haliburton. Looking for subject matter and surrounded by lake, sky and
pine forest, I thought (as I do every summer) that I would just paint what was
in front of me. Or at least nearby.
This painting is actually based on some photos I took while
visiting friends John and Lynn at their cottage on Georgian Bay, last summer.
The rocky shoreline is typical of the landscape there and became the subject in
this work. The actual veins of colour visible in the granite inspired the exaggerated
patterning and I love how they work well with the strong diagonal of the shoreline
and overall perspective. I hope that you are enjoying summer somewhere!
