Group of Seven (2024) PatagoniaOil on canvas30 x 40 in A line of caribou fights the rivers icy pull, antlers cutting through the current as the herd pushes toward the safety of the opposite bank. The steep cliffs and burned treeline rise behind them Yukon wilderness at its most unforgiving and beautiful. Determination, instinct, and survival move across the water in unison.

Painted after Dawson’s beloved swimming hole was washed away in the high spring runoff

Light filters through twisting limbs and thick growth

creating a lively study of form

A quiet moment at the edge of movement

their bodies folded into poses of washing

suggesting not decay

Equal parts still life and portrait

A late afternoon scene with the heavy stillness of summer air

A dramatic study of elevation and contrast

The image plays with reveal and concealment
