Oil Landscape on Panel

Oil landscape on panel, signed lower right, titled and dated 1979 verso, capturing a sweeping vista of the coastal mountain landscape with calm grandeur and realism. The scene looks down from an elevated ridge toward a serene inlet that winds gently through forested valleys, framed by rolling hills and distant peaks under a muted, overcast sky.

The artist uses soft, blended brushwork and a naturalistic palette dominated by greens, ochres, and greys to convey the moist atmosphere and temperate rainforest environment of Vancouver Island. Evergreen trees punctuate the foreground, their dark silhouettes contrasting with the pale water below and the softened contours of the distant landscape. Touches of warm autumn foliage along the slope introduce a subtle counterpoint to the cool, silvery light. Tranquil and spectacular - an homage to the rugged beauty of the West Coast!
