Stillness settles naturally across the surface of Lake Perućac in this original heavy body acrylic painting by Canadian artist Jeff Dillon. Inspired by the border landscape shared between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, the scene unfolds through layered teal water, softened shoreline vegetation, and muted atmospheric tones that create a quiet sense of distance and calm.

Looking at Lake Perućac, it’s hard to believe that it was once just a stretch of the Drina River. Now, it’s an expansive lake that serves as a border between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia. The water is so clear that you can see the bottom and the shore is dotted with trees and shrubs. Standing on the ethereal shores of Lake Perućac, it feels like you’re in another world entirely. When I look at this painting, it feels as though time stands still and there is a sense of silence and peace. Cadmium green, teal, paynes grey, light green and titanate yellow are blended and layered to achieve an organic palette.

The accompanying Certificate of Authenticity is also hand-signed and numbered by the artist.
