"Tossed by the Wind," Emily Carr, 1939.

Emily Carr was one of Canada's greatest artists. Early in her career she was famous for her paintings of remote forests and indigenous communities, some of which are still remote. In the early 30s she began more conceptual works around natural subjects, of which this Expressionist canvas is an example.

From a private collection.

"Landscape with Cows," Helen McNicoll, 1907.

A Canadian Impressionist, McNicoll helped popularize Impressionism in Canada and became one of the most prominent Canadian artists of the early 20th century. Sadly, she died young, 35 y/o, of diabetes, only 8 years after this was completed.

But what a perfect summer scene!

From the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto.

Small watercolour painting of Chandler House (aka Rocklyn National Historic Site), a stately stone building, built 1831, in Dorchester, New Brunswick, once home to EB Chandler, a Father of Confederation. A sister building stands in Sackville, and served as the residence of the president of Mount Allison University for decades. Today it’s a café.

Watercolour of a house and barn in Aulac, New Brunswick, overlooking the Tantramar Marsh near the New Brunswick/Nova Scotia border. The main Canadian National rail line between Halifax and Montréal winds its way along this propery, just to the right of this view.

Drawing this time. My first year fine arts sculpture professor, the late Tom Henderson, lived in this house in Aulac, New Brunswick, just a few minutes from the Nova Scotia border and Fort Beauséjour National Historic Site, just off the road to Prince Edward Island. Typical late-19th/early-20th century home around here. Stillman & Birn hardcover sketchbook. 2B Pencil, Carbonpen, Copic markers. 2018.

Everything is greening & flowers are just starting
to bloom here!
Soon it will be lilac time🌿
Here is my “Lilacs and Honeybee🌿
another one of my paintings made into flags at our local #
library
Do you see the person doing yoga reading a book about lilacs?🌿
Each one of my flags has a person hidden in it since we are smaller than Nature.
🌿Happy Earth Day everyone 🌿

(1/2) This is Montreal’s colourful Hotel St-Germain which I stumbled across after a recent visit to the Redpath Museum. Canadian muralist Michelle Hoogveld totally transformed its grey, aging concrete facade with her mural “Dazzle My Heart”.
