Donation to the Brain Injury Society of Toronto

I am proud to donate a print to the Brain Injury Society of Toronto for their Birdies for Brain Injury Golf Tournament silent auction on June 24, 2016 at Lionhead Golf & Country Club in Mississauga. The print, “Seclusion” is sized 8 x 8″ framed under anti-reflective ArtGlass to 17 x 21″ and is valued at $600. Part of my Georgian Bay and Muskoka series, the photograph was made on the shores of the Georgian Bay in Dillon, Ontario, north of Parry Sound. It features a silhouette and reflection of pine trees on an island across the water. If one looks very closely, a hidden   cottage is revealed among the trees. The print is also available in three other sizes: 20 x 20″, 36 x 36″, and 48 x 48″, in editions of 10, 10, and 5, respectively.
