A stunning landscape as seen from a Pitt Meadows dyke, overlooking the calm waters of the Allouette River and the distant snow-covered mountains of British Columbia. The slow-moving river winds gracefully through the northern meadows, reflecting the cloudy sky above. Towering, snow-covered mountains rise in the background, their snowy peaks sharply contrasting against the gravel dyke and meadow in the foreground.
Living in BC, Canada, offers me unlimited opportunities to enjoy spectacular scenery on a daily basis. This painting was inspired by a walk on one of the local dykes in Pitt Meadows, overlooking the Allouette River and the mountains to the north. I am trying to capture the tranquility of this untouched piece of British Columbia scenery, and evoke a connection with nature. The painting invites you to experience the peaceful solitude and natural beauty of a quiet moment by the river.
