A Yukon Burn with Fireweed

A typical Yukon burn will have the standing dead trees and the official flower for the Yukon will bloom year after year after the fire is long gone.  

This is a typical summer day with blue sky and wispy clouds and a profusion of flowers.  The Fox Lake Burn between Carmacks and Whitehorse is the subject of this painting.  

In 1998 there was a huge fire in the Braeburn and Fox Lake area.

I feel such a  sense of peace when I  walk to this pond which is across the Robert Campbell Highway (Yukon) from my home.  It is the time of year when the first snow comes and stays and the pond is not frozen yet.  There is a misty haze and it is very quiet, The refections on the pond are a deep dark colour and the air is cool. I think it is  very beautiful even though it is not a colourful time of year.
