Painting in the Laurentins in August

As usual my family and I spend time at our cottage in Val David. This gives me a good opportunity to paint en plein air. The next few posts will show some work that was done this past summer.

This was an 8 X 10 on panel done just off the section of the bike path running along the old railway bed between Val David and Ste. Agathe as it crosses the North River. As I was painting a gentleman came along on a bicycle and stopped to watch what I was doing. He introduced himself as Gordon Harrison, an artist from Ottawa, and gave me some great tips!
