Maple Flowers (SOLD)

One of the most exotic features of spring in the

south west corner of British Columbia are the

flowers of our native Big Leaf maples.

When lit by the spring sun, their beautiful

yellow green flowers and the new unfurling leaves,

make a striking sight against the dark greens

of the surrounding forest.

These tasty edibles were an important addition

to the spring time diets of our first peoples.

Oil on canvas 6 x 6.

Your comments are always welcomed

and appreciated.
