#2263 "Dumoine White and Red Pines"

This was the afternoon of Day Three of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) supported DRAW (Dumoine River Art for Wilderness) 2019. We were all eco-artists trying to assist with the awareness of the importance of wilderness in modern society.

After a trail mix lunch I decided to paint something different that rocks and water. The August sun was hot and I needed to remain in the shade. The Dumoine was now in the warm sector of the summer weather system. There was a stand of pines in the front yard of the main cabin and I endeavoured to turn those into a painting as I relaxed on the front porch. The white pine was flanked by two red pines. I was forest bathing as well as painting. Trees are the new super medicine. The planet and us all need massive doses of trees and forest and they come almost free without any prescription.
