Petrie Dusk

Acrylic, 24×36 on gallery wrap – $950

I go down to Petrie Island from time to time, enjoying the bit of wild in the city and collecting inspiration and reference photos. I have not been there in the evening, so when I saw the photos from July 22 by Greg Scriver , I was captivated by the beautiful subtle colours and peaceful evening scene. I asked Greg for permission to use his pic as a reference for a piece I imagined and he generously agreed.

So here is my effort. Admittedly, the colours are pushed (can’t help it, I love colour) so mine is not as peaceful as Greg’s . I also made more of the pickerel weed. I love those blue/purple water’s edge flowers. Thank You Greg!! (Chi Migwetch!!)
