(2006)
Subject: Landscape - Boreal Forest - Patterned Fen Dimensions (inches): 40 x 30 Medium: Oil on Canvas Description: This painting is of a patterned lenticular fen, southeast of McClelland Lake, north of Fort McMurray, Alberta. The lenticular patterning forms strings (islands of trees and shrubs) and flarks (wet, sedge meadow depressions) caused by near-surface and sub-surface groundwater flow.
