Plein air ensemble

Je fais partie de « Plein air ensemble », une trentaine d’artistes provenant de la région d’Ottawa-Gatineau. Le groupe va peindre au début avril 2009 pendant 5 ou 6 jours au Centre touristique de la Petite Rouge, à 30 km au nord de Montebello, Québec. La Rivière Rouge, Petite Rouge, la Petite Nation et la Lièvre sont des rivières pittoresques qui donnent vers le sud dans la rivière des Outaouais. En avril, nous pourrons peindre des rapides, des chutes, des bois, des étangs, ainsi que des villages et des paysages ruraux. Il est très satisfaisant de capter sur toile ce territoire merveilleux.

Les photos ci-dessous ont été prises lors de notre voyage en avril 2007.
