Point Pelee National Park residency

I've just returned from a six day artist-in-residency in Point Pelee National Park, an experience that will inspire for a long time to come.
I'm grateful to the selection committee and the very knowledgeable park staff.
Below are three oils completed on site, the third involving a midnight hike through the woods.
