Angler’s Dream

“On a trip up to Yellowstone Park, we ventured north to the Gallatin River in Montana where this fly fisherman caught my eye. My wife said it looked like a scene from the movie “A River Runs Through It” and when we looked it up, that’s where the movie was filmed. Idyllic!” – Charles Pabst

Marcus Ashley Gallery is the stuff of dreams. A walk through its hallowed hallways will take a guest to faraway and wondrous places, courtesy of world-famous painters like Charles Pabst. The impressionist, after all, is footloose and loves to share his travel experiences through the canvas.

Many Charles Pabst art pieces run along this theme. An example is Angler’s Dream, a breathtaking depiction of what otherwise would be just an everyday scene on a river. Under the careful and precise Pabst brush, the landscape becomes a story of epic proportions. His trademark vibrant colors breathe life into the ancient trees, still waters, and sun-kissed boulders.

In a genius stroke of art imitating life, the artist portrays the beauty of nature by its inherent lighting, bouncing off the large rocks and rippling along the water. Angler’s Dream will add a charming grace to a contemporary inn or a quaint cottage.
