Peter Etril Snyder
The Changing Seasons:
We have recently posted photographs depicting several seasons on the Grand. The following is what artist Peter Etril Snyder has to say:
"The changing of seasons offers me, as a painter, a whole new view of subjects and activities. Logic would suggest that after all the years that I have splashed the paint around, there would not, could not, be any surprises. Each season I discover previously unnoticed aspects of the land which is a real joy."
Painting The Grand River Valley, Peter Etril Snyder, Library and Archives Canada, 2005.
