The Summer your brought me Peace

"The Summer you brought me Peace", is painted from reference, and was taken by myself, to offer some peace and beauty to someone very special. The people it honors saved me and my girls (furkids) by giving us a safe place to stay during a time of change.
This scene and sunrise are the view from the backyard, which backed onto a marsh, the Wainfleet Wetlands Conservation Area in Southern Ontario.
You can almost hear the quietude of nature. The wind moving through the reeds, willow branches and leaves of the large maples and walnut trees. The occasional chuff of a deer, croaks of marsh frogs, crickets, and the beautiful songs of the migratory song birds.
Dedicated to the Matisz family, in remembrance of a wonderful woman, and their kindness.
