Description
The title of this painting is cryptic.
Irving Berlin vacationed at the white cottage on the southern point of Palestine Island in Georgian Bay. Irving probably wrote songs there as well. My friend Cam was out looking for flagged trees for me to paint. These heavily, blown over pines were on the small, rocky island just southwest of Palestine Island. I thought there was a linkage between the beautiful song White Christmas, the Christmas season, Christianity, Jesus, Palestine and the Holy Land and of course, ancient trees that thrive even in the harshest environment and strongest winds.
These wind blown trees are still standing and their age is probably much greater than we might expect. The water lines etched on the glacial rocks bely the up and downs of history and the water level of the Great Lakes.

Phil Chadwick replied:
Thanks Sunny. The studio paintings during the increasingly heat summers, tend to be more deliberate and thought out. They are fun but the outside nature is what really speaks to me. I look forward to you keen observations and support.
