Windmills and Bales
Acrylic on Cotton
24"x32"
Windmills and Bales is part of a series of four paintings depticting Alberta at dusk. I wanted to capture the colours and feeling of impending darkness. I also like the ambiuous etheral qualities that themes of darkness lend themselves to. Laureen McMullan was born in Calgary and has been a painter and practicing artist all her life. She attended The Alberta College of Art for four years, receiving The Queen Elizabeth Prize three years in a row. Her artwork has been in many shows including Canada, U.S.A and Japan.
