Okanagan Tapestry
Okanagan Tapestry 16” x 22” pen & ink on paper 2011
Having never
seen large scale commercial Orchards before the Spring of 1971, I was amazed at
the symmetry of the Orchards seeing them for the first time. While driving
though Penticton, Kelowna and Winfield on my way to Vernon, I saw hundreds, if
not thousands of trees planted in neat, easily managed rows. As the season
progressed I would see the trees become loaded with fruit of all kinds setting
the different orchards apart from one another. A Tapestry if
you will.
”Okanagan Tapestry” is based on my first impressions of those neatly planted
Orchards in the Okanagan Valley.
