Your senses will be delighted by her rich depictions of dappled sunlight, dancing through the trees. Their intensity and their warmth are extraordinary. Light has been the focus of her work for many years now and she handles it with dexterity and love. Burnstown can be found just past Arnprior towards Calabogie at the intersection of Burnstown Road and Hwy 508, 9km from Hwy 417.
