Painting #0225 Untitled Beaver Swamp III 
Unframed, oil on acid-free paper, 24.1 cm x 29.6 cm
Unsigned original by Bill Mason circa 1980
 
"In a beaver swamp you are mainly aware of death. But this is only an illusion. The swamp actually supports life, not only in and around the swamp, but downstream as well, as water is slowly leaked into the drainage system over the long, hot summer". Bill Mason, Canoescapes.
