Larches in Moonlight60” x 30” x 2” Acrylic painting and mixed mediums on canvas2023Preparing for a series exhibition. The Inspiration Behind the Painting. A late afternoon arrival to hike Pocaterra Ridge, Kananaskis, Alberta, during Larch Season resulted in a near empty trail on a usually very busy hike. We were lucky to enjoy the beautiful setting sun over the larches, which sparked a thought of envisioning this scene basking in moonlight.
