Plein Aire Canada paintings from the canoe -Andrew Hamilton-from the Paint Canada Series-Sunset Canoe Lake

Tom Thomson used to paint colourful landscape paintings and then bring them back to the city.The critics and viewers always disagreed with him and felt that these colours were not real.His view was that even he did not do the scene enough justice and felt he fell short in achieving the scene.This sunset piece was done from his favourite camp site on Canoe Lake Algonquin Park Ontario Canada.This was retouched to achieve the brilliance of the scene i remember.
hope you enjoy
