3795 – Blue Canoe, Helve Lake (Limberlost Forest Reserve)
Oil on Canvas, 8 x 10 inches
Framed: 10 x 12 inches
Helve Lake in the Limberlost Forest and Wildlife Reserve in Muskoka, offers a peaceful escape from a hectic life. It’s a place of quiet reflection where only birdsong, the slap of a beaver tail and the whisper of wind through the trees can be heard. I’ve had the opportunity to visit a camp on the lake a couple of times and wanted to recreate the tranquility of the lake and surrounding forest in a painting.
