I have finally finished the painting, would you like to see it? It's 48x24" oil on board.

I really like Ouzel Lake shot, a nice mix of open landscape and mountain, lots of interest for the eye - very good composition. I am planning to paint your picture on 24x36 - oil for my parent's anniversary gift. I might throw in your cowboy with pack horse in the picture too (my dad is a real western buff) Webshots is a great place for painters, A woman in Ontario emailed me and is painting a barn that I have on webshots from Kingston/Ottawa, Ontario trip 2 years ago. Love all the 'old' buildings they have there. Saskatchewan is having it's 100th birthday this year together with Alberta. Lots of wonderful scenery - if you look for it - Saskatchewan doesn't have mountains but lots of forest and thousands of lakes and the shield is very pretty too. Actually only the bottom third is prairie. Saskatoon is the best city in the province - wonderful riverbank, only 250,000 pop. Got everything I need.
