Paintings are here at Ontario-views.blogspot.com. I excluded Dusk-Hued Valley with Lake for the exhibition.
The exhibits are prints of originals.
Exhibit Notes:
Kidist Paulos Asrat has studied the visual arts, including painting, textile design and photography.
Her watercolors “Ontario Views” are a homage to the Group of Seven Canadian artists who dedicated their artistic visions to the Ontario landscape.
Ontario doesn't have the dramatic mountains of British Columbia and Alberta, the endlessly shimmering prairie fields of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, nor the clear blue coast lines of the Atlantic provinces. But we do have lakes. Lakes in every corner. Small lakes and big lakes. Lakes that should be oceans. Hidden lakes for idyllic summer days. Lakes by gentle hills. Lakes surrounded by trees. Lakes that transport cargo ships to towns and cities.
Here are my views.
