| #2692 "Solitary Pine Island" 5x7 inches oil |
This is an island located just south of Jones Island has one solitary tree surviving on it. I thought that the tree and the island needed to be remembered in oils. Even the smallest island is an important component of the world's largest freshwater archipelago.
The warm southerly breeze had created some wave action. The temperature was climbing to 25 Celsius even though it was barely mid-morning.
The Archipelago was formed on January 1, 1980 when the townships of Georgian Bay South Archipelago and Georgian Bay North Archipelago were carved out of unincorporated geographic townships of the Parry Sound District. The name of the area is perfect and hopefully will protect the natural beauty of the islands and waterways for generations.
I have painted the area before in #2308 "Jonses Lighthouse Parry Sound Archipelago" and #2329 "Jones Island Lighthouse Point".
