You know when you see something and you feel this overwhelming urge to claim it? Ha! I love this painting. Everything in it connects with me on a very deep, intrinsic level. It’s a painting that you experience and it’s being shown at the Robert Bateman Centre in Victoria, BC. Word on the street is that Royal Roads owns this beauty. What do you want for it? Contact me. 🙂
