Lost in the Moment

Lost in the Moment, 18x24" - acrylic ...

Finished this one last week. A few years ago I was in the Queen Charlottes (now Haida Qwaii). It was an overcast morning, but just a little opening in the clouds allowed the sun to light up these trees. It was so beautiful! I have painted this scene before, but I wanted to revisit it and also paint it in a larger format.

If you are interested in this painting, please send me an email at info@lisariehl.com

Here are a few in-progress photos:

you have caught the light nicely. I have never seen a landscape like this and it must be a beautiful place. Nicely done.

Wow, I love this! And the progress shots are so cool, I love to see how a painting comes to be what it is. Beautifully done!

Thanks both of you! It is an amazing place to visit, very wild and rugged. And inspiring...
