Canoes in the early morning mist at the cottage. The fog is lifting, and soon it will be time for the summer adventure to begin anew.

Created for those who love and have wonderful memories of days on the water, paddling a canoe, or who dream of cottage life, and long to escape (had enough winter, anyone?) to escape to a lake, and who appreciate quiet, still moments, (solitude without loneliness). This painting is not about the hot, noisy, splashy days by the water, although that could still be in the works as the mist clears.

This pastel, calm scene of canoes, represents the still, solitary moments at the water’s edge. The quiet of early morning, before the others are awake. The mist or fog not yet cleared, and the world dreamy and undemanding. Time to contentedly reflect and contemplate, the spirit replenished. The promise of clear day, with time spent on the water, lies ahead.

This painting is unframed, but edges are painted, and it is wired, ready to hang. The painting has a unique work completion number as well as a Certificate of Authenticity.
