Rose Desnoyers

"I began painting after my retirement several years ago. My inspirations are the world around me; a path, a sunlit hill, storm clouds, old buildings and animals. Whether I am painting outdoors or in my studio from photos, I love to lose myself in hours of painting. Using oils and watercolours, I try to capture on canvas the mood of a scene. My paintings are along the lines of realism and impressionism, which I hope to share with you on the tour."
