Niagara River and Niagara Falls: This painting was created just a 5-minute walk from Niagara Falls, at the Schoellkopf Power Station Ruins. The Niagara River, with its vibrant turquoise waters, has shaped both the landscape and the country. The river's beauty inspired movements like the Free Niagara campaign, which fought to protect its natural wonder from industrial development. The nearby power stations now provide about 25% of the electricity for New York State and Ontario. I’m inspired by the river’s power, its history, and the generations who have worked to preserve it.

Key Features:

  • Original varnished plein air oil painting (3.3” x 2.3”) on archival Bristol board

  • Black frame (6.5” x 5”) custom-built for the piece

  • Mounted with archival (non-damaging) methods on archival double matting

  • Museum glass provides UV protection while offering clear, glare-free viewing

  • Ready to hang (wired) and certificate of authenticity included

  • Geolocation of painting site and Niagara facts enclosed

Environmental Responsibility: Created with high-efficiency, solvent-free methods that reflect years of intentional, low-impact practice. Shipped with high-end gallery packing practices and intentionally sustainable, recyclable materials.
