Madeleine Wood's paintings evoke a sense of intimacy. She chooses to include the viewer in private moments that could be snapshots of memories or fantasies. She captures the play of tension and release in her figurative works, while in her landscapes focuses on tiny details such as the curl of arbutus bark.

Halin de Repentigny is an acclaimed artist with paintings held in national and international collections. Halin first made his name when he moved to Dawson City, Yukon. He became well known for his depictions of life in Canada’s Klondike, interpreting the beauty and majesty of the remote northern wilderness and capturing it on canvas. His love of landscape, colour and light is now manifested in his winter home in Patagonia, Argentina, while the Klondike summers continue to inspire his work.
Since 1983 he has shown hundreds of paintings in various galleries and exhibitions in the US, Germany, Peru, Costa Rica, the Virgin Islands and in Canada.
