More of Saskatoon


Saskatoon, City of Bridges, 1969 - looking West

43 Summers ago, the first of many large paintings
of beautiful Saskatoon and its many bridges was
completed.

What a great journey back through the archives, to
get a look at this young city (just over 60 years old
at the time) and watch how the skyline has changed
through paintings and sketches.
