Quiet Reflections

Thoughts recede to a time when introductions to this landscape flirted with infancy, and young eyes were filled with wonder. We are but a flash of light in the rugged history of eons. Tread lightly where indigenous footprints fade as testaments of respect for the gifts of Mother Earth. Generations return to this place of peace and repose while calls reach out to their ancestral roots in warning of changes to come. The whisper of silent winds, through majestic pines, reawakens and rejuvenates the senses through failing ears and eyes, while placid waters reflect mirrored images and obscure the vitality below. Curious ripples break their trust and leave them vulnerable to the world above as a raven’s perch calls warnings to those who disrespect this land. Absorb the vista before you to revisit when turbulence swirls and darkness intrudes, allowing its strength to restore your soul as you stand fast against altered perfection. Recognize peace in the presence of wonder and heighten your senses in quiet reflections.

  • Reflections of Thomson

    Reflections of Thomson

    A young Tom Thomson living in urban surrounds, sought solitude in the majestic bluffs of Scarborough. Venturing further east he explored the calm of a lake named Scugog, where inspiration lead to the creation of Near Lake Scugog and Evening Lake Scugog. His gaze is distant, while his four legged companion’s is inward. Was this a sign of his bold interpretations of future northern landscapes? Look inward at your accomplishments and interactions that have proven to be a positive influence on the world, but also look ahead with determination and creativity for a future rich with a canvas filled with vibrant brush strokes. Could these be the lessons of Reflections of Thomson?

    Jack Pine Visions

Across the waters of Carcajou Bay, violet horizons roll in serpentine rhythms, while foreground branches bow in sunbathed splendor. He ensured his dependent lived forever in his oil sketch, as rocky shores, pristine waters, and windswept Pines were the culmination of Thomson’s Jack Pine visions.

    Golden Ivory

    Release yourself from the trap of materialism and superficial goals.  Rejoice in the sights, sounds, smells, and the touch of the sky, and all that lies beneath its gentle blanket.  Pause and admire the stand of Birch set in a forest  bathed in the fading light of milky and misty yellow hues.  Marvel at the simple complexity of golden ivory.
