Art by Joanne Ouellet
Within a cool autumnal ocher you perceive a solitary horseman striding next to his mount. An instant later, you are transported to the woods of Lake Beauport and are startled by the passage of a winter bird. And then, by magic, you stumble upon a strange conversation between a gathering of barnacle geese. No, you are not dreaming. You have simply entered into the paintings of Joanne Ouellet. You have been bewitched by the fairy of the atmospheres who knows so well how to capture the souls of her subjects before even putting them on paper. [Marie Dufour - the Fairy of the Atmospheres]
