(Maison Trestler ) here in Vaudreuil , Québec . There are a few rooms
that have been converted in art galleries . It is an old but very charming
house that you can visit and see how people
lived in the early days .

Snowshoeing in Parc du Domaine Vert

Parc du domaine Vert Outing

I decided to go paint at the ¨Parc du Domaine Vert ¨in Mirabel
,Qc today . It is about 12 kilometers from my home and today
was a chilling -10 c but a beautiful day . I tried for the first time
a new pair of snowshoes I just bought recently . I'ts not easy to
put them on especially with my packsack on my back .Nonethe-
less I was very happy with my painting even though it was a
difficult condition to paint . There are several trails to walk on
and you can also ski . I took several photos of my painting and I
will put them all on this blog .

Maison Dubois 9 x 12 " Oil on board

This is the old historic Maison Dubois house that I painted
a few weeks ago . I liked the old barn behind the trees . I
did a second painting of this barn but from another angle .

recent paintings

Here are a few paintings I've did this week . they were

all painted from a walking distance from my home . The

reason being that I had a problem with my car and they

had to tow it to the garage . It was too old to repare it so

I sent it to the scrap yard . So now , I'm without a car but

in a way I'll get to walk more often and stay in shape .
