Dianne's Caballos (horses) are in watercolours and very artistically rendered. I will have Personas y Tierra (people and landscapes) in acrylics and other mediums. The Gallery, Peachland, is on Hwy 97S, open 7 days a week has a stunning view of the Okanagan Lake from ground zero.

Pleine Aire at Ex Nihilo Winery

Spectacular views from the vineyard of Ex Nihilo Winery in Lake Country were painted in acrylics and pastels......... perfect setting for Pleine Aire in the beautiful Okanagan, a thrilling experience, no doubt.

Art Show, Sonora Ridge, Osoyoos

If you have not seen the Sonora Ridge development, you certainly are missing something unique. Tastefully decorated show home by Colleen Lintell were the venue for the gala affair for the may long weekend. Wine tasting, Mercedez Kelwona, art show and the show homes made it worth all the untiring efforts of the Lintells.

77 paintings in total were on display, I had 8 pieces..........."Reaching for the Sky" (sold), "Poise" and "Fall" are some from that display.
