Salish Sea west coast painting by Barry Tate Gallery of Fine Art - acrylic paintings and watercolor paintings

SALISH SEA
The "Inside Passage" between Vancouver Island and the mainland was recently renamed "Salish Sea" in honor of the first nations peoples who inhabit the west coast of Canada and Washington state USA. With hundreds of islands along it's thousand mile path, it is truly one of the most picturesque areas in the world.
This painting represents a typical warm summer evening as viewed from one of the islands. The Arbutus on the right is an easily recognized local tree having a skin like bark of soft reds and orchre hues.
