Prairie Small Town | 12" x 16"

About the Artwork

Prairie Small Town is a 12" x 16" oil painting by Peter Shostak. Shostak captures the quiet serenity of rural life on the Canadian prairies under a clear night sky. The central focus is on two iconic structures:

A small white church on the left and a green grain elevator on the right. These buildings symbolize the tight-knit community and the importance of agriculture that sustains these towns. The snow-covered path leading through the foreground creates a sense of stillness, while the wide-open sky filled with stars emphasizes the vastness and isolation of the prairie landscape. With its simple steeple, the church stands tall as a gathering place for the town's residents. The grain elevator, marked with "Alberta Wheat Pool," harkens to the region's agricultural roots, where these towering structures were once vital for storing grain before being transported to market via the railway. Peter captured a moment when these structures stood as monuments to a way of life deeply connected to the land.
