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 are invited to gather 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 contact McIntosh
. Remember the wonderful olden 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.
