Renaissance logoArtist Angie Roth McIntosh of WorldArtTours.net created the Penticton100 web gallery this summer in partnership with the Okanagan School of the Arts and the Penticton Museum and Archives to celebrate Penticton's 100th birthday. Local artists were invited to go out Kelsey painting at the SS Sicamous Pentictonand plein air paint to create a new image or to submit previous original work that highlighted some of their  favorite spots in Penticton. Artists may still submit images by contacting Angie.  Angie and daughter Kelsey went and painted down by the Sicamous.  This was the day in July that the huge wind storm blew through Penticton and toppled over many of the trees that survived the major Nov.07  wind storm.  The day started out beautifully but as the morning wore on we saw clouds move in and the wind picked up.  After lunch the wind got extremely annoying so we packed up and went home with paintings not quite completed-- to be completed later.  Open Studio at the Penticton MuseumArtists were also invited to paint for a day in the Penticton Museum during the valley's summer Open Studio Day.  Angie and Kelsey and several other artists spent the day in the museum painting.

STARRY STARRY NIGHT FUNDRAISER:

Angie, Nora, and Toby 2002 Misty Village ChinaAngie's 16"x20" acrylic painting of the Okanagan Claybanks  was sold at the Penticton Art Gallery Starry Starry Night 31st Annual Art Auction Fundraiser however she does have notecards of the image.  This year's event was exciting, featuring amazing art by regional and internationially renowned artists, Darylectoneslive music by the Darylectones in the Japanese garden by the lake, great food, wine.  For the first time in recent memory it happened in the summer, on July 5th so that locals and tourists on holidays in the great Okanagan could take in the event.  Levis Fine Art Auctions of Calgary was in charge of the auction and works were on display at the Art Gallery, Front Street, Penticton, BC.  For more gallery information call 250 493-2928.

MEADOWLARK FESTIVAL PENTICTON:After a busy spring painting in Mexico, and journeying up Vancouver Island and through the Inside passage to Prince Rupert and Stewart, Angie worked on acrylics and watercolours and painted with Stewart artists for a few days.   Angie led a plein-aire paint out May 17th, 2008 at the Meadowlark Festival organized by OSCA in the South Okanagan.  She was delighted that ecoligist, writer, and philosopher Don Gayton agreed to explain the habitat, biology and ecology of the region to the group of ten artists who went to paint at the only remaining natural  section  of the Okanagan River in BC.  The group was interested in hearing about the projects to restore the sockeye salmon to Skaha Lake and to return some of the river to a more natural state.  Okanagan River and McIntyrer BluffHere is an acrylic painting of the location that they painted at with the Meadowlark group. While this painting is gone now, if you like the image please contact Angie for notecards. This is the only natural stretch left in the Okanagan River as tragically the river was channelized and dyked in the 1950's.     Look at some of the paintings  of this region.   Artists wishing to help protect the fragile Okanagan habitat are asked to join Angie to discuss organizing a paintout during the 2009 Meadowlark Festival. For more information  contact Angie.

CLASSES IN PENTICTON:Angie taught elementary home learner students the art of drawing and painting each week in June and she One of Angie's Studentsoffered a week of classes to children the third week of July through the Okanagan School of the Arts.  These classes were held in Angie's studio and it  was alot of fun--like going to art school with lots of great excercises on drawing, composition, and design, colour theory, and of course painting!  Look at the lovely paintings the children created!

This year Angie organized an artists plein air paint out Aug. 4-8th to coincide with the festival.  Some artists came from around the province, Penticton, Stewart, Prince Rupert  and New Zealand and joined Stewart artists.  Most had a great week painting around Stewart, in Hyder Alaska, and at the Salmon Glacier and we saw lots of bears.  On Friday, August 8th, from 7-9 PM Angie had an art show at the HarbourLight Store with hosts Eva and Goady Appenzeller.  They've been kind enough to hang Angie's work and have sold her notecards and gifts ever since she opened her retreat up in Stewart.   Artists may contact one of the festival organizor by e-mail christycraig@gmail.com for future Bear Festival information, tables or event tickets  if they wish to participate in the Artists' Market that is held in conjunction with the Festival.  Angie had her works on display and organized children's painting again.  All enjoyed displays by several artists, authors, carver, bear program, crafters, a puppet show and the musical  entertainment as well as breakfasts, lunches, and dinners.  On Sunday Aug. 10th Angie led a free plein air paint out at the pavilion.  Then from August 11-13th artist Lorna Allen from New Zealand led an Acrylic painting workshop giving several artists a chance to spend a few more days painting. All in all a lovely time was had, enjoying the scenery, making new friends, and painting.

ART RETREAT OF THE NORTH

Artist Angie McIntosh has created a simple rustic painting studio in an old house in Stewart BC which is near some of the most scenic painting locations of Western Canada and  Alaska, in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.  In the summer of 2008 artists from all around the world gathered together to paint in this amazing inspiring location and join McIntosh for a painting retreat.   It is wonderful to be in the north in the summer and early fall to paint. If you wish to participate next year contact McIntosh .  Remember the wonderful old days when Group of Seven artists inspired each other on painting trips to the Georgian Bay?  Angie was also inspired by walking through Renoir's home in southern France. The comraderie and inspiration felt and created by the artists who met at Renoir's home must have been amazing.  Seeing the art works left in the rooms by his artist friends who would visit and paint moved her and so she is trying to create a similar environment right here in northern BC.  Click here to learn about joining McIntosh as an artist in residence at her art retreat in Stewart, BC, in northern Canada, minutes from Alaska.  Please note that the Art Retreat of the North is not available for commercial rental--it is Angie's place of art and creativity.

Paints in Stewart
Painting in 2007 on the boardwalk in Stewart at the end
of the Portland Canal, a 90 mile inlet that is the
international boundary between BC and Alaska.

I love to paint in Stewart BC and Hyder Alaska.  I  travel there three or four times a year to paint-winter, spring, summer, and fall.  I love the wonderful mountains, glaciers, wild flowers, old buildings, and bears.  The variety of scenery is incredible!  I have painted many of these local scenes in watercolour and have now also rendered a few in acrylic.

Harbour in Stewart
Scene Painted in my Plein Air Workshop in Stewart
I taught a free workshop at the pavilion in Stewart for the Bear Festival with this as a view.   The weather was lovely in 2007 so I've placed those pictures for you to see here and the painting was finally completed in the summer of 2008.  This is the scene I painted and is looking in the opposite direction from the acrylic version of the harbour at the bottom of the left column..  In 2008, 3 folks came from the Queen Charlottes and several from the Stewart/Hyder region so we had quite a large group despite the cold weather and forgetting to take pictures!
