This illustration is based on a series of images I captured while on a boat ride in the South Arm of the Fraser River with my friend Bob on a glorious Fall morning in 2022. Depicted here is the iconic Westham Island Bridge and a rustic red barn in the background situated on the highly productive agricultural lands of Westham Island, in Delta, British Columbia.

This illustration is the 2nd in a series of street banner art I completed for a street banner competition in the city of Delta, BC. Belted Kingfisher Looks On features one of our favourite winged river dwellers, the Belted Kingfisher, perched on a piling near a patch of Black Eyed Susans, watching its beloved river territory just across from the wharfs of Harbourside in Ladner, British Columbia. A colour palette of turquoise, yellow and fishing boat off-whites create the warmth of a sunny summer day, enjoyed along the banks of the South Arm of the Fraser River.

In Harbour Park, across the Chilcotin Slough from Ladner the Wharfinger House is quite the landmark. Behind this house is Wharfinger Shed in the same brilliant red as the house. I love this slightly messy summer scene with potted flowers, wheelbarrow, and white picket fence complete with marine life ring. The  boat harbour that the Wharfinger resides over is in the background. Red, green, and white make up this summer day palette.
