Repos is an original work from the Pauline Larouche Sport series. Artist Pauline Larouche celebrates the magic of winter sports, vast snowy landscapes, and unforgettable memories made in the mountains. Created using acrylics and mixed media with art paper collage on a 14 x 14-inch gallery canvas, this painting captures all the energy of a day spent skiing down the slopes before enjoying a well-deserved break.

After a generous dusting of fresh snow, snowboarders storm the mountains, exploring the undergrowth and carving the first tracks in pristine snow. In this luminous composition, the figures still seem imbued with the adrenaline of the descent. Their cheeks reddened by the cold, their lungs filled with pure air, they savor this moment when time slows down. One removes a mitten to brush off the snow, a simple gesture that inspires the title " Rest ."

The vibrant colors of the landscape contrast with the dazzling whites of the snow, creating a warm atmosphere despite the winter. The art paper collages add texture and depth, giving the mountain setting a lively and contemporary feel.

This work evokes freedom, shared pleasure, getaways with family or friends, and that unique feeling of a day spent outdoors. Regardless of age, the mountains bring people together, make them laugh, get them moving, and remind us how precious those little moments are.

This painting will appeal to fans of winter sports , snowboarding , mountains , Quebec nature , and contemporary figurative art. A work that will bring freshness, movement, and light to your décor all year round.
