#228 – Danced to the Lake Below

Painting by @jeffdillonfineart

Original Size: 48″ x 36″, Horizontal, Ratio: 4:3, Completed June 2022

This painting "Danced to the Lake Below", captures the beauty of Peyto Lake in Alberta, Canada at sunset. The picturesque Peyto Lake is located in the Canadian Rockies in Banff National Park, Alberta.

In this piece the sun is setting behind the mountains, casting a beautiful yellow, orange and pink hue across the sky. The lake below is reflecting the vibrant whirling colours of the sunset. Imagine yourself standing here, taking in the beauty of Peyto Lake firsthand, the trees aglow with the last light of the day and the outline of the mountains in the distance. The palette of this piece is juxtaposed between cool and warm tones. Gradients of pink, orange, blue, and green pigments lend a sense of peace and tranquility to the painting.
