There subjects, portraits and the Canadian landscape, fit well into my Ambrotype project AMBROTOS KANATA. I learn from their experiences, commitment, locations and compositions. Plus, it is fun to just read about artists! Gotta love that.

A Tangled Garden, J.E.H. Macdonald, 1916

Lake Superior, Lawren Harris, 1928

West Wind, Tom Thomson, 1926

Indian Church (Church at Yuquot Village), Emily Carr, 1929
