Arowhon Pines and Algonquin Park
"For the past two years, I have been the artist-in-residence at Arowhon Pines. I love this opportunity! Theresa, the owner, treats me like royalty. One day a week in the summer, I set up my easel on the grounds of the resort and paint. Guests can come and watch the progress and ask questions about painting, or about the painter. I even have my own little gallery on the premises from which I sell just about everything I produce. When the lunch bell rings, Theresa, or another staff member, fetches me to come into the historic, hexagonal dining hall to enjoy a gourmet lunch, on the house! Sometime, I canoe around Little Joe Lake and paint the landscape, too."
Dining Hall at Arowhon Pines
The dining hall at Arowhon Pines is a soaring, hexagonal, wood structure with a huge, central fireplace open on all sides. The buiding was built in the early 1900's by Polish men using only hand tools. It is stunningly beautiful as well as an engineering feat! I love to paint out on the covered verandah that overhangs Lake Little Joe.

Servers at Arowhon PInes
Here is the inside of my favourite dining hall. I love to sit and watch the young servers dressed crisply in formal white and black as they silently move around the hall, attending to every need of the guests.

Camp Ahmek, Algonquin Pk
Camp Ahmek on Canoe Lake is one of my favourite camps in Algonquin Park to paint. I love to paint both the huge, red-roofed buildings painted green, and the
rough log cabins. This painting was done in the morning when the managers were planning out the tasks of day behind the dining hall.

The Canoeing Masters, Camp Ahmek
I arrived early one morning before breakfast, before the campers emerged from their cabins, to watch the day unfold at Camp Ahmek. Two very skilled canoeists were paddling silently and effortlessly, near the shore in a bright orange canoe. Their canoe danced on the water. I loved the reflection on the water. They graciously allowed me to photograph them. From the photo, I painted their portraits.

Sailboats at Camp Tamakwa, Algonquin Park
In the summer of 2025, I painted all the kids camps of Algonquin Park, thanks to the support of all the camp owners and managers who picked me up by boat in the morning and dropped me off at the public dock in the evening . It was a very fun project that I hope to continue this summer.

Rock Lake, Algonquin Park
My friend Mike took me and my husband on a boat tour of Rock Lake. I was overwhelmed with the beauty of the numerous rock cliffs on that quiet lake in Algonquin Park. I hope to get another tour to get more painting subject matter.

Paddles at Camp Northway
Camp Northway is a girls camp in Algonquin Park - the oldest in North America. I love the rustic feel of this camp. Campers are outside all the time. They sleep in tents, they eat in a screened-in dining hall, they hang out in a lodge that is open to the air, they bathe in the lake.
