Log Bridge

Painting Description

Fallen logs form a bridge across a stream beside a small road in Muskoka.

I am drawn to these watery marshy scenes. I find that they have so many painting possibilities. The layers of foliage mix with the reflections to offer so many colour options. I find it impossible not to add to the scenes with possibilities that I dream up. In this case, the water in the right hand near the back was not here. I just thought it would add to the scene.

Reverie

Pieces under this category were painted during a very short period of time between 2014-2015 when Pete developed a new style inspired by aspects of the work of Nicolai Fechin.
