Ancient Forest

Follow the boardwalk. That’s what this painting begs you to do. The forest is lively and ever-changing as the trees gather their energy to grow leaves for the spring and the water tumbles over rocks and fallen logs. This painting is all about the energy in the individual sections of this small space. In one area the water is lively and spirited, in another area it is tranquil. Nothing stays the same for long in the forest.

The Ancient Forest was slated to be logged in the early 2000s, when a timber cruiser realized the value of this forest. He began encouraging people to hike the forest. A boardwalk was constructed by hand by the Caledonia Ramblers that now spans the entire loop of the hike. In 2016, the park was saved forever from logging when it was designated as a Class A Provincial Park, the Ancient Forest Provincial Park (Chun T’oh Whudujut). The forest is home to trees up to 2000 years old as well as an unknown variety of rare plants that are just now being studied.

Original Art

The unique, hand-made, irreplaceable original painting. This is the painting that has been lovingly created just for you to enjoy. Each painting comes as its own uniquely flawed and perfect self. We`ve made every reasonable effort to make sure that the image you see reflects the actual original painting.

A 3/4” deep painting is a ‘skinny’ painting. It sits 3/4” off the wall and is the most common style for a painting.

A 2” deep painting is a “deep” painting. It sits 2” off the wall and stands out from the wall. It is more resistant to warping as it ages and does not require a frame.

I’ve used lightfast paint (meaning that it is resistant to fading), but if you’d like it to be UV varnished, please let us know after ordering. Keep in mind that this will add at least a week to the delivery time.
