Artist Comments
"This painting is named after a beautiful hiking trail," shares artist Jenn Williamson. In her painting practice, Jenn finds importance in her cherished daily walks. She discovers that being in nature helps her prepare physically and spiritually, and this translates into more depth and energy in her work. "I am thankful to have learned the art of 'taking the long way home' in recent years."

About the Artist
Jenn Williamson expertly evokes the scenery of British Columbia in her soft abstract landscapes. She utilizes defining horizontal and vertical strokes, coupled with a skillful handling of color, to create significant depth in each piece. Her paintings, though abstracted, clearly convey the atmospheric attributes of the scene–rain, wind, clouds, fog. Jenn’s muted color palette transports the viewer to the Canadian west coast, as if to be standing before the marshlands and ocean right alongside the artist.
