For Roger
For Roger

2014

When we discovered that our dear friend Roger did not have much time left on Earth, I painted this for him. Over the years, he had spent long hours on the shores of the North Saskatchewan River panning for gold - and with some measure of success! Since he was so sick and couldn't get back to his beloved river's edge, I brought the river to him to enjoy in his final days. The silhouette of this image was printed on his memorial tribute.
