Yet another small painting that developed from studies and ideas captured during our Alaskan trip. During a separate boat trip, we sailed into watery caverns filled with scenes like this. During the morning, mist predominated and the distant land was hazy, diffuse. Low-lying clouds hung in the air while the surrounding shores and densely wooded hillsides created an ethereal feeling. There were a few whales about but not a lot of eagles - we saw around 20 or so along with a few Ravens, and a huge flock of hundreds of crows! The size of this smaller work is 8 x 10 inches, oil on canvas.
