. . . his imagination. Although the woman in the painting bares much resemblance to his wife Colleen, he consciously did not intend it to be her. Many will argue this fact with him and conclude that he was obviously thinking of her when he painted this beautifully gentle scene.
Suchiu′s story goes like this: "The feelings that influenced me to paint this field of Heather are just as pure and simple as the image itself. All of the wealth in the world cannot replace the treasures that nature hands over to us so willingly and without demands. It is up to us not only as individuals but as an entire race to realize the true value of this incredibly generous source and protect it at all costs."
A Historic Moment for Suchiu and Heather
March 21, 1995 was an historic moment in Canadian art. Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien and U.S. Ambassador to Canada welcomed Ronald Suchiu, his wife Colleen and
daughter Britton, accompanied by MP Jerry Pickard to Ottawa.
All in the same day artist Ronald Suchiu visited with U.S. Ambassador James Blanchard and his wife Janet at the U.S. Embassy, presented a regally framed print to the Governor General′s office where two royal couriers would then be personally transporting.
