Painted on site at the Celebrating Our Backyards show at the ASA Gallery in Calgary.
While doing an 84km bike ride of Calgary's beyond exquisite bike paths I explored many neighbourhoods and areas of the city, taking many photos. I was nearing the end of my ride and while I have many exceptional photos, including some that will hopefully be paintings in the future, none of them sang with the definitive "this is the one." I rode across a beautiful bridge and up a much too steep of hill for how tired I was (half my brakes broke and I forgot my food). Near Weaselhead North Glenmore Park I came across the most stunning view of the Elbow River meandering into what would also be astonishingly beautiful, the Glenmore Resevoir. I heard the internal scream I had been waiting for which was THIS IS IT!
While it is currently in my Ortona Studio in Edmonton, I hope to find it a home in Calgary and area as I feel like my painting is homesick which is a weird thing to write (or think really).
