ABOUT THE ARTWORK
I painted this picture of the half-submerged ruined wooden pilings in the Portland Canal, Hyder, Alaska because they reminded me of Tolkien's description of the Dead Men of Dunharrow, or the Shadow Host. When I saw this for the first time at high tide, they looked abandoned and trapped, staring out without hope towards the ocean as the mist started to move in. Although this is an Autumnal picture looking across towards the British Columbian forests, it looks the same throughout the year because of the Pacific Ocean's warming influence. I've used Schminke, Sennelier and Unison of pastels with Canson pastel paper to paint this picture.

I was born in South Africa and then studied for at Rhodes University under professor Brian Bradshaw. I lived in Northwestern British Columbia, Canada for 9 years. and during that time opened an art gallery (with gift shop), and a working studio where I painted and taught people to do the same. Although being a landscape painter using pastel has been a lifelong love, I now explore other media in an effort to express my strong thoughts and emotions\ . This has been a voyage of discovery where I have found new dimensions I was only able to dream of in the past. Please note that ALL of my images (C.N.
