Art in the Garden, The Highland Manor, Doors Open, Owen Sound June 2010

THE HIGHLAND MANOR, OWEN SOUND


The Highland Manor is one of Canada's largest and oldest privately owned Victorian Mansions, an architectural treasure, seated majestically atop the West Hill of Owen Sound, Ontario, overlooking Georgian Bay and the historic harbour city. Doors Open Ontario is a province-wide celebration of community heritage designed to create access, awareness and excitement about our heritage. Doors Open provides residents and visitors alike with an unique opportunity to explore and enjoy sometimes hidden and always interesting places within our community.


Although the weather was a little tempermental, we had a great show and sale during Doors Open, Owen Sound at the Highland Manor June 5 and 6.

CURIOUS - THE TOURIST GUIDE - MAY 2010

Carol-Ann's painting "Water Lily" graces the cover of the May issue of Curious, The Tourist Guide.

CURIOUS can now be viewed on line at http://www.curiousguide.ca/
Carol-Ann's bio is on page 20.

"Noel and I are always driving around the countryside looking for unique subject matters for our paintings. This particular water lily graced the pond at the Saugeen First Nations Amphitheatre just outside of Southampton. We always carry our cameras with us for those occasions when we don't have sufficient time for plein air painting. Through these off the beaten path opportunities, we are able to artistically record the marvellous scenery the Grey/Bruce area provides."
