About the Print: …”The setting of the painting is in Killarney Park in northern Ontario, and the pre-Cambrian quartzite cliff, the clear water and the plants and bushes are all very typical of this part of Canada. Looking at these cliff faces is almost like looking at a painted mural. Nature has been working on it, building up a pattern of lichens and mosses and ferns. I wanted to recreate this mural effect, and establish a strong abstract shape that is repeated in the reflection in a broken-up, many-faceted impressionist way. The scene is placid, but the composition’s interest comes from the tension set up by having the loons in the bottom right-hand corner and the overhanging hemlock branches up on the left. The lighting is fundamental to the effect of this painting. I put almost the entire painting in shadow, with the accents coming from the highlights. The early morning light is striking across the scene, picking up just a bit of the cliff face and the heads of the two adult loons” – Robert Bateman
About the Artist: Robert Bateman, born in Toronto in 1930, a keen artist and naturalist painted wildlife and wilderness in a representational style. In the 60’s he rediscovered realism and developed a style that would make him one of the foremost artists depicting the world of nature earning him critical acclaim. Following his first one-man show in 1967, Bateman’s art work is found in many public and private collections and his honours, awards and honorary doctorates are numerous and have culminated in the highest civilian award, the Officer of the Order of Canada. Bateman has also published four books depicting his art.
