Iceberg, Newfoundland
Oil painting
Artists Statement
One magical evening about a decade ago, my husband and I witnessed an electric, golden sun setting on icebergs floating through a Newfoundland bay of the Atlantic. They were part of a huge ice sheet that had broken off the Greenland Ice Cap two years earlier, and were leisurely drifting south to their demise. The visible part of the iceberg in my painting was about 12 stories high and 200 yards from the shore where we stood mesmerized. Cool lighting returned the next morning and the iceberg had flipped–still breathtaking, but the magic had melted during the night.
