Vigilance | 36" x 48"

About the Artwork

Vigilance is a 36" x 48" oil painting by Richard Cole created on canvas. Born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Cole's upbringing profoundly influences his artistic expression, as seen in this striking portrayal of a hawk perched on a post amidst a vast field of blooming canola. The painting embodies watchfulness and alertness, capturing the essence of the hawk as a symbol of power and clarity. The expansive yellow canola fields create a vivid contrast against the serene, cloud-filled sky, drawing the viewer's eye and enhancing the scene's realism.

Cole's symbolic meaning of the hawk conveys a message of being prepared and maintaining a clear and focused vision. This piece exemplifies his unique ability to blend personal history with artistic expression, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the tranquil yet powerful imagery of the natural world.
