Frederic Remington, Evening on a Canadian Lake

This painting is up on the wall in my living room - and Dave and I were just discussing it. How we both love art that allows you to dream. lets you "imagine" - and it hit me that was one of the reasons I loved this painting so much. In Evening on a Canadian Lake, an alarming sound or movement outside the picture plane has caught the attention of the figures in the canoe. The subject of their interest remains unknown. Remington explained his artistic approach: "Cut down and out—do your hardest work outside the picture, and let your audience take away something to think about—to imagine."
