1563 Standing Tall 1-25 This 16x20 inch acrylic painting is a celebration of the rhythmic beauty found along Northern Ontario's lakeshores. Windswept pines rise from sun-warmed rocks, their silhouettes dancing against a sky alive with movement. The water shimmers in layered blues, reflecting the ever-changing light and the quiet strength of the land.
I approached this piece with bold, expressive brushwork, simplifying the forms to capture the essential spirit of the scene. The interplay of cool blues and warm earth tones creates a sense of harmony, while the stylized trees add a touch of playful energy. The distant shoreline glows with soft greens and yellows, inviting the viewer to imagine the expanse beyond.
Standing tall is perfect for anyone who feels a connection to wild places and wants to bring a sense of natural vitality into their space. It's a reminder of the resilience and beauty that define the northern wilderness, a place where land, water, and sky meet in timeless conversation.
