Carmanah Point, Acrylic, 24 by 36
The Carmanah Valley is one of the most inspiring places I have ever been. From the rocky and mist shrouded shores in Pacific Rim National Park to the verdant green rainforests of the upper valley it is truly an inspiring place.
This image is taken looking across to the Point in the distance with the wild Pacific crashing on the jagged rocks.
Turkey was a fabulous country with inspiring architecture, and no buildings were more awesome than this one, built at the height of Byzantine power. I don't usually do paintings with such involved architectural drawings, but based on this one, I think I'll do more.
I love walking in the rain forest. The light slanting through the canopy high above my head creates a mystical pattern on the forest floor. This painting is an attempt to capture the magic and glow of a rain forest.
