Travel Photography and painting from Chippewa Falls near Batchawana Bay on Lake Superior, Canada

in TravelFeed4 years ago

These are a few photos from our Road Trip to Agawa Bay last summer to see the Pictographs near Lake Superior Provincial Park. This little spot was made famous by Canada’s Group of 7 artists who painted here back in the 1930’s. They have a monument erected here and several markers to indicate the spots where they painted from.

We did some fishing here, actually caught some small Perch. We also did a little panning for gold and some metal detecting since the area is known to have placer gold in its rivers. We Found none...

I also did a small 8 x 10 acrylic painting and will post below. It was not easy to paint here since the mosquitos were so bad.

Even though it's a quick one I still like the painting very much!

Thanks .... I lost a lot of blood making that painting. But the mosquitos were very happy.

Neat painting ya cheeky art hiding bar-steward! I wish I could paint half as good! And that for a quickie!

Thanks.... I have to paint quickly or I lose interest.... especially when there is gold and pickerel hiding somewhere in that river.

Great painting! And I hear you about the mosquitos! I think the buzzing is just as annoying as the actual bite lol
