Where the Land Ends

The Loneliness Escaped from him like Moths

I wanted this wolf to be healthy, and curious but not intimidating, A moment of respect shared deep in the winter forest before going his own way, unharmed. The original is 4' x 5' (Oil) to hold the power of the size of this wild encounter.

A small spring-fed pond home to muskrats, dragonflies, frogs, ducks and one glorious day, barn swallows... aerodynamic stars of the bird world

What we Leave Behind

A wild river reserves the right to change her course as happened with the extensive flooding of the little Coldwater River in the Nicola Valley, British Columbia in the past year.

A favorite line from Bruce Cockburns' poetry

2' x3' (ft) walnut oil A beautiful line from a Bruce Cockburn song that refused to leave me until I painted it. The golden door is in California, a natural formation that when the sun aligns with it is like an invitation into a glorious new world.

This giant, ancient cedar is on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The title comes from the fact that what probably saved this kingly tree from logging over the years was that it is growing in an inaccessible part of the island. I used the photos of T.J. Watt at the Ancient Forest Alliance as references.

The Escape

The swallow soars blissfully above the troubled world

I worked from a photo I took of Conner Defeo playing with Oxygen Orcestrar at the Princeton Traditional folk festival 2015

'Shared Solitude'

A painting I did after my friend of 20 yrs got so sick I thought I might lose him (my cat Chip-dip)....turned out he only had a birds entire head, beak and all stuck in his intestines for 3 days. So I ended up with this portrait anyway. Please visit my facebook gallery page : https://www.facebook.com/Cassandradolen.ca?ref=hl
