Stop by to view some exciting work, and maybe meet the artist, too!
This special exhibit is open the same operating dates and hours as the Algonquin Park Visitor Centre. Check the Events Calendar for specific dates and times.
Essence of Algonquin by Wayne Stanley
The landscapes I paint are a reflection of Algonquin’s vast amounts of lakes, inlets, trees, rocks, colors and the mood of the land. The paintings in this art exhibit is my view of the parks campfires, lakes, trees, shorelines and the abundant of wildlife. I have painted in different mediums over the years like pencil, watercolors, oils and acrylics. My choice of mediums is oils and acrylics allow me to achieve the freedom of expression. I'm hoping that the viewers of my work are captivated by the moods and scenery of Algonquin Park.
