Edge of the old growth, Abraham Lake nature reserve. Acrylic on panel 7 x 8β, 2026. I used to love to visit this old relic forest, from a day I snowshoed into the lake and got to visit far shoreline, where there was no trail, by snowshoeing around the lake edge.

From the archives, available. October At Whitesand Lake, Tobeatic Wilderness. Acrylic on panel 11x14. What a paddle into this remote lake, it took a day to get here, skimming through river & still water and eventually into the lake its self.
