About This Piece
"Recollet Falls is on the French River, Ontario, as it makes its way from Lake Nipissing to Georgian Bay. This waterway has been used for countless years by the First Nations and European explorers and settlers. The painting leads you in the direction down river, wondering about more rapids to come."
