Morning Meditation
Watercolor 16” x 12” on Arches hot pressed paper
Early morning mist rises above a small lake close to Rainbow Falls Provincial Park in Ontario, on the north shore of Lake Superior.
Sitting on one of the shoreline boulders while watching this scene, one falls quietly into meditation.

I really like the small patch of blue in the upper right. It tells the story of the coming day. Great painting Douglas.

I am also drawn to the small patch of blue, and the one in the water….....and the trees are really excellent…love the brush strokes. Really lovely serene scene.
Corinne Pouzet
It seems a wonderful place to meditate indeed ! I agree with kate : the two patches of blue draw the attention….the reflections are really well rendered (you are a master in this !), the whole composition, with those somptious trees, is magnificent Douglas
Lynda Robinson
You are SUCH a master of the watercolour medium Doug! You just have a way of painting the ‘light’ which gives your work that ‘wow’ factor every time.
Jim Phillips
Love the misty feel coming off the water. Wonderful work Douglas. Amazing job with the reflections. You set the standard high for other watercolour artist.

This is stunning, Doug. It is Canada at its best. I love the mist and the limited palette.
Anne Couteau
Really great. I like the subtle transparencies in the background.
Colin Cartwright
Definitely conveying a sense of calm and tranquility, Doug.
Good simple composition – very nice reflections, solid foreground, and a fine wet in wet, misty tree background.
