The fourth painting I completed in my 2023 Canadian Landscape series is the Bay of Fundy (also known as the Hopewell Rocks or "Flowerpot Rocks") in New Brunswick. When I was considering different locations to paint in New Brunswick, I was instantly captivated by the Bay of Fundy. These unique rock formations are known as sea stacks and are caused by tidal erosion. What makes them even more unique is that they have trees growing on top. It is hard to gauge the scale of these rocks from my painting, but the highest point is 70 feet tall!
I was super excited to paint these rocks, but I definitely ran into a few challenges along the way... The biggest struggle was figuring out how to make the rocks look three-dimensional while keeping consistent with my Barcode Landscape style. In the end, I was both happy and relieved by how the painting turned out. This is also the first Barcode Landscape painting I've made with a horizontal sky.
