Here is a painting of some gigantic willow trees that grow near the Rideau Canal (in Ottawa). Although they aren't as old as the canal (built in the 1830s), they must have began their life a few decades after it was completed.

Patterson's Creek is part of the Rideau Canal in downtown Ottawa. It's a small appendage that takes you into an upscale neighbourhood known as the Glebe. Sometimes it's nice to get off the main thoroughfare where most of the skaters are found and spend some time in this small but quaint little corner. Watercolour, 15.5 x 12 inches.Le ruisseau Patterson fait parti du Canal Rideau à Ottawa. C'est une section du canal qui vous amène dans une voisinage chic reconnue comme le Glebe. Des fois c'est convenable de sortir de la partie du canal très passante et de passer un moment calme dans cette petite mais pittoreque coin. Aquarelle, 15.5 x 12 pouces.
