Quiet Light Over Wasaga- Two Moments to Breathe By
Some light arrives like a whisper. It doesn’t ask for attention; it offers it back.
After a night of aurora chasing that offered little to the north, the turn east brought a surprise: an aurora riding the edge of morning. Purples are rare here, yet they rained through the sky like silk - violet, mint, and pale rose drifting over the treeline. Perseverance doesn’t always win with a crescendo; sometimes it waits for a quiet reveal. That’s the heartbeat of this piece - dawn and aurora sharing one steady breath.
Just down the shore, winter writes in rhythm. Wind shapes the dunes, the bay edits them back. From a distance, the ice looks unbreakable. Up close, it’s laced with light and movement - strong and tender at once. This painting leans into that tension: glow against, resilience that lives in the in-between.
Why These Two Together?
Both moments ask for stillness without demanding it. They’re meditative by nature - calm, luminous, and grounded - drawn from the same shoreline within a quiet morning’s.

If a room could have a pause button, it would look like this light- soft, resilient, and here just long enough to change the day.
