I am a contemporary Canadian landscape artist. I'm a visual story teller engaged in a mad race against time. recording disappearing pre-urbanized landscapes, as cities swallow land in fertile temperate zones. I use Elemental Texture, Luminous Colour, Symbolic Shapes and Lyrical Line and a process I have developed and call Glazed Acrylic. also see me on instagram @robinbarattaartist

Drumlin

Drumlin
Down the side road, by the corn maze, there is an odd little hill, a glacial remnant, and a reminder of why this land is so fertile. Glacial till deposited as the drumlin was formed by the melting ice, is some of the richest soil in Canada. Soil that feeds cities and industry that in turn devours the very soil that made them possible.
