Sudbury-Scapes
In this show Sudbury-Scapes, (Sudbury meaning a fortified place; but I like to call it a blessed place with so much to offer to the senses, and so many natural resources), and (Scapes: to describe the land. It is my intent to share with you a collection of artworks I have created of the vast area of land called Sudbury.
It’s usually thought of as an industrial town because of the mining industry here, and it certainly is… but to many of us who live in the area, it has so much more to offer. We have the Cambrian shield with gorgeous outcroppings of granite and various types of mineral rich stone. We are blessed with many lakes and plenty of wildlife. There are vast forests of Birch, Maple, and Pine to only name a few! There isn’t much in my eyes not to love about the area of Sudbury, it has so much to offer, and I am proud of the beautiful place I call home – Sudbury.
Thank you for visiting my show as it is my hearts desire for you to enjoy this place as much as I do. And hopefully it will bring back a memory or provoke in you a desire to look a little closer.
