I painted this as a gift to my parents. After my mother died, I brought it back home with me.
When I was growing up and we’d travel across country to visit my grandparents in Calgary, we would take a day-jaunt up into Banff National Park, including driving to Lake Louise. Even though we went there only a few times, it was to me the most beautiful place I’d ever seen.
The painting was done in acrylic, on 18″ by 14″ canvasboard. This image was scanned in sections and assembled in Photoshop, so it has been adjusted at points for visual consistency. But other than a few minor tweaks, it’s a pretty good reproduction, particularly of the colors I used.
