Crimson Canoe on Quiet Shores (10” x 20”)

Acrylic on canvas

Framed - 10 3/4” x 20 3/4”

With “Crimson Canoe on Quiet Shores”, I wanted to invite viewers to pause and notice the unexpected vibrancy hidden in peaceful moments—the way a striking red hull can feel both out of place and perfectly at home on a quiet snowy shore. It’s a playful reminder that sometimes the boldest statements come from the simplest scenes, and that tranquility and intensity can share a single frame. It also begs the question: Where are its inhabitants? Was it left behind?
