‘Expanding Boundaries’, a project by Shelley Leach and Anne-Marie Langan. Our mission is to encapsulate the awe-inspiring beauty of Canada’s national parks through the art of plein air painting, our photos and journals and the connections we make along the way we'll be painting on location.
This project, set to span multiple years, will see us navigating through the diverse landscapes of Canada, from the rugged mountains to the sometimes tranquil coastlines , how do you really describe Canada I think as we go that is part of what we will be covering. There are 38 plus National Parks in Canada and 10 National Reserves.
Our goal is to vividly portray each park on our canvases and in our sketchbooks. However, our adventure extends beyond the canvas and the national parks. We’ll be making numerous stops along the way, immortalizing the varied Canadian scenery in our artwork. We'll be blogging and posting as well as painting of course, we will share our view virtually, if you'd like to participate and paint along with us. This journey is no small undertaking we will see and create something from every province and territory in Canada, we invite you to be part of this journey. Wind Rock Ridge Art Gallery will serve as a place to show and exhibit our work and possibly some of the artists and artisans work we connect with along the way.
