"Teahouse," 40" x 65"

Acrylic on canvas. 

"This painting was created using various photos my wife Loretta and I took while on vacations in Algonquin Park, the French River, Kawarthas, Georgian Bay, etc. I take elements from the photos and design my own unique composition. The sides of the canvas are grey and 2 inches in depth, which means a frame is not required for displaying purposes."
