Painting in the Bugaboos

Had the most amazing experience ever! At the end of August I went painting with a group of amazing artists up to the Bugaboos just near Radium Hot Springs. The amazing Robert Genn and his beautiful daughter Sarah. They were amazing mentors. We were helicoptered around to some pretty cool and crazy spots... Stayed up at the Bugaboo Lodge and were treated like royalty by the staff at Canadian Mountain Holidays... this is the smile of a well fed and pampered artist:) I was so sad when it was all over - it went by way too fast! But I guess we all have to come back down to reality at some point. Darn it...


I met some amazing artists that were so inspiring and talented... My creative cup is full and I can't wait to get into painting a bit more (ha ha now work just has to die down a bit - fingers crossed).



We got to see some pretty amazing scenery. And it was so isolated... we were like the only ones there! I couldn't believe my eyes half of the time.


Here are a few of my paintings from the trip... I will never forget my time up in the Bugaboos:
