Cypress Hills is an original oil painting capturing the wide, layered quiet of the Saskatchewan-Alberta Provincial Park. Painted from a photograph taken by the artist, this work translates observation into memory. For the artist, his personal memories of summers spent at Cypress Hills breathe long-held emotion into this painting.

Broad, confident brushstrokes give the land a sense of movement and rhythm. Subtle hints of gold leaf lift the hills, echoing the way light settles across the prairie terrain.
