11 × 12 in. | Oil Pastel on Paper | 2026 | Original Artwork
A mature tree rises beyond a pond filled with shifting greens, yellows and quiet traces of violet in Where Stillness Gathers. Reeds interrupt the foreground while reflections soften the distinction between water, land and sky.
The painting grew from a moment at the University of Alberta Botanic Garden, formerly known as the Devonian Botanic Garden. Those familiar with the garden may recognize the setting, but the work holds something more personal than a record of place.
Here, stillness exists both within the landscape and within the person observing it. Colour and reflection carry the experience of a moment in which the external world and an internal sense of calm briefly came into alignment.
