As our Canada 150 project - the
Palette and Pencil Guild of the Credit Valley Artisans decided to create
150 5x7" paintings of Canada.
Each participating artist created at least one painting of their view of what Canada means to them.
People
beyond our group found out about it and wanted to participate too. So
we broadened our scope and accepted creations from family, friends, and
beyond.
The first
viewing of the paintings was at the "Not-So-Empty-Bowls" fundraiser for
the creation of the Lucy Maud Montgomery Literary Centre and Museum in
Norval, Ontario. One Hundred and Fifty paintings and more have been
created and submitted to date.
Currently - some of the paintings are displayed in the lobby of Georgetown Cultural Centre & Libary.
The paintings will be displayed on this website and are up for bidding by contacting [email protected] with your bid.
Your details will not be published on the website - only your name and bid.
Ten paintings will be up for auction each week!
We want everyone to enjoy our paintings and add to them if possible. To
donate a 5x7" painting or to receive further information - please
contact [email protected].
Proceeds
of the auctions will be donated to the fund for creation of the Lucy
Maud Montgomery Literary Centre and Museum in Norval, Ontario.
