About Artist:
Peter Maxwell Ewart was born in Kisbey, Saskatchewan, on 7 April 1918. Much of Ewart's subject matter was found in the Cariboo region of British Columbia between Spences Bridge and Ashcroft. He also painted the Canadian Rockies. His canvases often have a touch of red as a focal point, and frequently include people and horses. He variously tried to capture a sense of loneliness, the warmth of winter cabins, campfires and morning frosts. Ewart was a slow and meticulous painter, sometimes taking up to a year to finish a picture. One contemporary criticism was that although well done, his paintings approached that of a standard product and evolved little.
