Grand Coast Caption: "Grand Coast", 9.5 feet x 3.5 feet, oil on linen "The inspiration for this painting happened while paddling a stretch of Georgian Bay a couple of years back. After picking our way through the many ridges of slightly submerged rock, I looked up to see this island, whose face would later see the setting sun. I returned to climb upon a nearby island that allowed me just enough elevation to get above the nearby grasses. With the sun dircetly to my back, I enjoyed the lenghthening shadows, as they stetched out over the foreground. The subtle magnificence of the scene, and the sheer breadth of it causes this to be one of of my largest paintings, and hopefully conveys the feeling of being there and the peace that I enjoyed."
