"Peaceful Waters"
 
30" x 40"  - Gypsum on a custom-made cradled hardboard, and a locally crafted white birch frame. Hanging hardware included. 
 
Peaceful Waters is both calming and energizing. This piece feels like a meditation - featuring 5 life-sized hand-sculpted trout on a matte lime-wash like green background. This painting changes drastically with light, with new shadows, dimensions and textures appearing throughout the day. Daylight brings a warmth to the green, while low light brings cooler tones. We imagine this piece would suit many aesthetics, and complements wood work and live plants. This is one of Becca's favourite creations of 2025 - one that will be displayed proudly in her own home until it finds its collector.  
 
Becca's fishscapes are inspired by many hours spent as a child watching fish under the dock, or through the ice. She used to do this for so long that she would see swimming fish when she closed her eyes to sleep. These works honour those memories, and remind you to let your imagination run wild. The negative space backgrounds are metaphors for the inner conscience and imagination.  All fishscapes take on a new life depending on the lighting. In low-light conditions, shadows of each fish appear and make the work very dynamic. 
 
Becca's fishscapes have been described as being meditative, calming, energizing and grounding. She affectionately calls them her "living fossils" - preserving memories and nostalgia in stone, but still very much alive.
