This painting is the result of a recent hiking trip up the Black tusk near Whistler, British Columbia. The scenery is spectacular and the hike up into the high meadows from the lower elevation is well worth the effort. I wanted to capture the sheer scale of the surrounding beauty and found that a ten foot canvas was necessary to get this airy, high up feeling.

Deryk Houston was awarded the opportunity to stay at the Ted Harrison artist retreat on Crag lake in the Yukon. He took the time to explore new way of expressing himself and was completely re energized. He would like to thank Mr. Ted Harrison for his generosity and words of encouragement. Deryk had a fabulous, creative time. Below are some examples of his new work created in the gallery space of the two story log cabin. For more information and photos from Deryk's trip, click here.
