Impressionist Canadian Snowbirds
Price: $60.00
Description: It was a family tradition when I was growing up to attend the Canadian Forces annual air shows. I had looked forward each year to see all the planes on display and, gasped in amazement at the dramatic erobatic feats performed by the talented and brave pilots and their planes. Needless to say it was a sad time for many when the last annual air show was held at Edmonton Garrison in the early nineties. The tradition had come to an end.
In honor of my appreciation for the years of enjoyment I experienced watching these perfomances, I present this lovely little original oil painting depicting a senario where on a warm, glorious day, highly skilled pilots demonstrated these magnificant Canadian Snowbirds during the Renaissance period.
This particular painting is quite different for me in that it was painted almost entirely with a palette knife in a looser, impressionist style, a step outside my usual and well-known realistic style of painting. Impressionist Canadian Snowbirds, is an original oil painting (not a print), which was painted on an 8 x 10 inch stretched canvas using professional GRUMBACHER oils. A good quality frame will enhance the beauty of this piece and will, I'm sure, look fantastic in any room of your home or office. I appreciate so much your interest in my work.
Dimensions: 10.8" wide and 8.8" tall
