"The setting of the painting in in Killarney Park in northern Ontario. The pre-Cambrian quartzite cliff, the clear water and the plants and bushes are all very typical of this part of Canada. The lighting is fundamental to the effect of the painting. I put almost the entire painting in shadow, with the accents coming from the highlights. The early morning light is striking across the scene, picking up just a bit of the cliff face and the heads of the two adult loons." - Robert Bateman
