"The forest that God created inspires me to create a painting that I hope reveals how I feel about it. That's what creativity is to me."

Bill Mason,1929-1988.

A rare sale of two of Bill Mason's original paintings.

These untitled Forest I and Forest II original Bill Mason paintings are being made for sale by the Mason family.

Bill Mason's last art show in Almonte, Ontario, in March 2000, sold out in only 40 minutes! Since then there have been many inquiries regarding purchasing original paintings by the late Bill Mason. Known primarily for his work as a filmmaker, author and canoeist, Bill Mason spent a lifetime painting and sketching the rivers, lakes, waterfalls, cliffs and campsites that he loved. Now Bill Mason's family has decided to offer these two ORIGINAL paintings available for purchase.

There may be more Bill Mason paintings offered for sale at a later date. I suggest you check back to see updates in our Original Painting page or contact us to be included on our emailing list, redcanoe@istar.ca
