About Temple

This contemporary landscape painting was created by a Canadian artist.

A lone tree takes centre stage in this lovely landscape by Peter Hoffer.
Huron captures the glory of fall colors—the palette is a rich combination of burnt orange and red all set against a turquoise blue sky. Hoffer is highly regarded for his signature technique of using fine layers of resin, markings, scratches, and drippings to add definitive character to his work. The effect is thoroughly modern.

“I wanted to do the landscape in a manner in which it is personified. Where the tree becomes the individual, even playing on some clichés." Peter Hoffer
