Autumn on the T'Sou-ke River


This painting was loosely based on an early fall afternoon scene on the Sooke River. The warm sunlight created a diffused glow in the background while in the foreground, the light and shadow created a beautiful pattern on the moving surface of the river.

This is an oil painting on a 40" by 30" stretched canvas. No longer Available
