#2255 "Dumoine Goat Island Misty Sunrise"

This was Day Two of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) supported DRAW (Dumoine River Art for Wilderness) 2019.

After completing #2254 "Grande Chute Portage Take Out" I grabbed a smooth panel and painted looking across Goat Island and into the sun. The backlit colours were muted but I was after the quick impression concentrating on the crepuscular rays and the light. Everything in the scene was turbulent and fleeting.

As I painted I glanced upstream and was surprised to see a large pair of ears swimming eastward across the Dumoine channel. The ears morphed into a large and very beautiful cow moose. I paused my frantic brush work to savour the moment. You can't buy memories like this.
