Friday Finds: The Pool After by PrankePaintings

The Pool After Prankearts

This vibrant oil on canvas painting is a lovely representation of Canadian nature. It's also very reminiscent of the work done by the Group of Seven. Richard of PrankePaintings is a third generation artist from Montreal. His grandfather and father were artists too and the talent gene has definitely been passed on! This one is my favorite because of the starkness of the birches combined with the vibrant fall colors and turquoise water. The angle that the artist has captured makes you feel like you've stumbled upon a secret pool and it looks inviting enough to take a swim! For more beautiful paintings, please visit PrankePaintings.
