Built by the early pioneers | 10" x 12"

About the Artwork

Built by the early pioneers is a 10" x 12" oil painting by Peter Shostak created on Canvas. Peter Shostak is a poignant homage to the settlers who shaped the landscape and culture of the Western Canadian prairies. Depicted against a starry night sky, the painting features a solitary church, its architecture reminiscent of Eastern European influences, standing resilient amidst the snow-covered prairies. Illuminated by a soft glow, the church not only represents a place of worship and a communal labour of love but also a beacon of faith for the community that built it. The snow-clad trees and the crisp winter air captured in Shostak's painting reflect the quiet solitude and the enduring spirit of the early pioneers.
