Description
Inspired by the captivating call of the pileated woodpecker, in the hush of the first snowfall of the season, on Galiano Island.
Our yard is a playground in the snow. We share a hushed moment with a pileated woodpecker to drink it all in and then we all get to work. The woodpecker about his business and Ben and I walk down the road shaking the snow load off the young trees along the driveway. Bowed down to the earth under their loads, they spring up with a shower of glittering diamonds and all is well.
9 x 12 x 1.5 inch original acrylic painting on gallery wrapped canvas. The painting continues around the sides, so framing is a choice, not a necessity.
