"Soul Sisters"
oil on wood panel
18 x 24
SOLD
"This painting features those wonderful west coast
trees, the Arbutus. Though the mighty cedars
and firs are regaled as the trees of the
west coast it is the Arbutus that holds sway
with my soul. Feminine and sensual in
character they are sacred to many of
the first peoples here on the south coast.
When you breathe in the scent of their profuse blossoms,
see the bountiful bright red clusters of their
edible berries among the leathery evergreen leaves
or sit quietly on a hot, still, mid summer afternoon and
hear the thin layers of bark begin to audibly crack
and peel from the smooth trunks,
you begin to understand..."
