About the painting: This painting was the 2008 winner of Best Landscape Award for the DVAC. Every year I participate in a show in Algonquin Park during October. This painting depicts a scene along the Highway 60 corridor, so typical of the beautiful fall in Algonquin. Many of my paintings are done on location, however this one was painted in the studio with a sketch, photograph and memories of that beautiful day for inspiration.
