Inspiration
Nestled in the rolling orchards of South East Kelowna, the Belgo pond a special refuge for migratory birds & the rare painted turtle. With Black Mountain towering above, autumn sunsets can cast magenta reflections of the volcanic rock & turning leaves. A magical environment of natural beauty and critical importance as one of the Okanagan’s few remaining wetlands. The original 36x48 acrylic on canvas painting was created in February 2021 for the Gizzli Winery “Almost Spring Galley” to support CMHA Kelowna which was put on by the Federation of Canadian Artists Central Okanagan Chapter. It now sits in a private collection.
