Majestic Mountain Landscapes<br />
New landscape paintings<br />
are on display at the Nelson<br />
Public Library by Nelson<br />
artist Abby Wilson. Her<br />
feature piece “Valhalla Traverse’’<br />
is a triptych (three<br />
connecting panels) that<br />
links popular hiking trails<br />
from Valhalla Provincial<br />
Park into a panoramic<br />
scene. It practically glows off the walls with sunset infused light.<br />
Other paintings capture the Kootenay and Rocky mountains<br />
with stylized lines and inventive colours. Abby is the author<br />
of the much anticipated, forthcoming West Kootenay Hiking<br />
guidebook and her work is heavily inspired by local hiking<br />
trails and viewpoints.<br />
Abby Wilson paints her love of these mountains into bright,<br />
bold acrylic landscapes, exploring how geometry aligns with<br />
natural geology. Abby spends the summers hiking, bringing<br />
her sketchbook with her before eventually moving to the studio.<br />
When asked about her inspiration, she says, “I work to<br />
develop paintings that focus on the majesty of the mountain<br />
landscapes. I use colour and shape to push the structure of the<br />
mountain towards the surreal, striving to capture the feelings<br />
of otherworldly bliss and awe that comes with exploring these<br />
wild places.” Abby’s work is held in private collections in Canada,<br />
the US, and Europe. She sells her artwork over her website<br />
and the original works displayed in the library are also for sale.<br />
The exhibition continues until the end of April.<br />

We have two lovely hamsters ! Meet Ava & Rufus!<br />
Ava is an adorable syrian Hamster 5 months old. A little shy but will<br />
adjust to a kind loving home. Rufus is a handsome 1 year old male,<br />
He loves to eat and play in his habitat. These cuties would make a<br />
great addition to a family with caring gentle kids.<br />
Please note that a male and female hamster can not be housed<br />
together, we unfortunately do not spay or neuter such small<br />
creatures.<br />
