(Prints and "

Guenter Burr 
Born & originally trained in Germany,
today Guenter Burr lives and works in Nova Scotia, Canada,
where the natural
surroundings of sea, shore, fields and forests provide ready inspiration for his
art.
" What drives me as an artist -
my
inspiration - First of all the thoughts & guidelines
I received
from my Master, Dieter Lukas-Larsen. He made me aware how beautiful nature
is.
To express
this beauty (in landscapes, flowers, animals), is the most important power
driving me to paint."
Ghislaine
Fecteau
Born in Campbellton NB, and now residing in
Halifax, Ghislaine started out as a teacher in New Brunswick and Nova
Scotia. Drawing, painting and art in any form, have always been of
interest.
"I use art as a form of expressing myself. I reap many
rewards as a result, everything from recognition and personal satisfaction to
the sense that I have left an impression or a mark of my
achievements."
KEN SPEARING
Born in Cambridge Hants County N.S. 1944, the son of a
cabinet maker.
Ken completed his formal education in Ontario as a
graduate chemical engineer.
Art interest started at the early age of 6
yrs. and continues to be nourished
in his historic studio/gallery in
Summerville N.S. [Riverwind Gallery].
This painters passion is the
portrayal of rural scenes, of particular interest is the forgotten past
of
Nova Scotia agriculture and the detail depiction of the rural
textures.
