There are places that seem to make it easier to slow down and reconnect—with the people beside us, with nature, and sometimes with ourselves.
Time to Connect was inspired by Pyramid Lake in Jasper. I wanted to capture the feeling of being surrounded by the Rockies, with the water stretching out before you and the mountains creating that incredible sense of being somewhere much bigger than yourself.
For me, the title is really what this painting is about. Life gets busy, and it can be easy to move from one thing to the next without really stopping. Places like Pyramid Lake remind me to spend time together, to talk, to explore, and to simply be present.
I used expressive brushwork, vibrant colour, and layers of movement to paint the landscape as I experienced it—not just what I saw, but what I wanted to remember about being there.
At 40 × 48 inches, Time to Connect is a large statement piece celebrating Pyramid Lake, Jasper, and the importance of making time for the places and people that bring us back to what matters.
