Cape Cook painting Barry Tate Gallery of Fine Art - acrylic paintings and watercolor paintings

CAPE COOK
Named after the famous explorer, Cape Cook is more aptly called "The Cape Of Storms". Jutting miles out to see from the northern tip of Vancouver Island, this land mass often causes dangerous sea conditions. Wind and waves from the north and south combine making this one of the roughest areas along on Vancouver Island for navigators. Solander Island seen here has been so harshly beaten, that no trees can survive on it.

But, like a Japanese rock garden, there is a quiet beauty in the simple shapes and muted colors. A sail boat takes the opportunity to slip by while it can. Tony Only would have liked this place...

ORIGINAL PAINTING:

30" x 40" acrylic on 3/4" clean-edge canvas. ( 28x38 face dimension )
A clean-edge painting can simply be hung "as is" for a modern contemporary look, or by using an optional frame that suits your decor.

GICLÉE PRINT
Giclée prints are the best type of reproductions available today.
They are supplied with a double acid free mat and foam backing board. All you need is a common 16x20" frame.
Mat options are:
    silver gray with dark blue inner mat - nice traditional look that fits well. A mid to dark colored frame looks best
    dark blue on dark blue - dramatic and bold look, very powerful. Best with a light colored frame like metallic or wood.
    white on white - traditional gallery choice, classy and elegant. Goes with all decors. Best with a mid to medium dark frame.
