This item is an unframed, original painting by Campbell River artist, Gavin Livingston.

Approx 36"x22" on paper, 2012

Signed, dated, stamped.

From Gavin's website:

I have been painting for over 12 years now, the beautiful landscapes of British Columbia. I work in acrylic, on paper and canvas.

Nature has taught me to see the landscape as a living, breathing being to which we are intimately connected. My paintings are a way for nature to speak to you as it speaks to me.I paint sacred space to raise awareness of the incredible impact which nature has upon our consciousness.

I choose to paint among these special lands, and feel passionately that these landscapes are sacred to all of us. Our presence here is all of our stewardship responsibility. This relationship to the land, water, trees and all of life around us, is of prime importance, for it is the very life we breathe. It unifies us all. It is here, in sacred space, we truly meet.
