His distinct portfolio heavily reflects the influence of the Folk and Naïve art movements, abandoning rigid mathematical perspective in favor of flattened planes, expressive proportions, and highly saturated, emotional color choices. De Combe’s works are celebrated for their highly textured, structural brushwork—fully visible on this piece through the short, vertical strokes defining the foreground shoreline and the rich horizontal bands capturing the water's reflection. His paintings are heavily collected across Southern Ontario and are a staple of regional estate collections. Condition Report Canvas: Excellent structural integrity.
