Title: Â At the Fish Market
Artist: Myra Evans
Medium: Ink and Watercolor
Website: myra-evans.artistswebsites.com
About the Painting: This recent painting was inspired by a trip to North Vietnam. I especially enjoyed rendering  the “sea” of colorful hats the women wore as  they worked cleaning fish.
Title: Visit to the Sugar Shack
Medium: Watercolour
Size: 10″ x 14″
Artist: Ian G. Nicholl
Year: 2010
About the painting: This painting was done after a March break visit with our granchildren to a sugar shack near Huntsville. It was a glorious spring day. Following a cool night the sun had the sap running and the children enjoyed snow cooled maple sugar twirled on a popsicle stick. In bush that was almost monochromatic, the children’s clothing provided a bright focus.
Title: Cotswold Morning
Medium: Acrylic on Canvas
Size: 16″x20″
Artist: Brent Arlitt
About the Painting: The mill at Lower Slaughter in the Cotswold, built in 1658. The brilliant June morning sun warms the stones as the clear water happily cascades down the mill race to the tune of birds singing.
About the Artist: Mr. Arlitt is a professional engineer who enjoys capturing and conveying the feelings of a landscape scene into a painting.
Title: The White Pine
Artist: Jane Eberhard
About the painting: In Temagami Provincial Forest, the white pines are the forest royalty. This ancient giant is on high ground, but even if it weren’t, it would tower over all other trees on its island. It can be seen from a great distance, and is a landmark for boaters.
About the artist: Jane has spent summers in Temagami almost all her life. She has a strong emotional attachment to the wilderness forest. This feeling is expressed through the colours in her paintings.
Title: Rose Cottage
Medium: Watercolour
Size: 12 3/4″ x 18 3/4″
Artist: Ian Nicholl
About the Artist:
Ian Nicholl has been drawing and painting most of his life. Since retiring he has concentrated on watercolours pursuing a love of landscape and architectural subjects developed in his native England. In addition to commissions for house and cottage portraits his paintings and prints have sold privately and at shows in Muskoka and Toronto.
The massive Danforth Bridge always captivated me. My first painting of it, a full size watercolour, bought by The City of Toronto, was of the bridge before the protection at the top, which may be very convenient, but ugly. Its real name is the Prince Edward Viaduct System, or more commonly know as The Viaduct, and it was completed in 1918.
Title: Temple of Apollo and Church of St Paul, Syracuse, Sicily
Artist: Pat Vicari
About the painting: I found this an eloquent juxtaposition of the very ancient, and pagan religious monument and an eighteenth-century Christian church.
