Sky Line Trail - Cape Breton, NS

16x20 acrylic on panel
Skyline Trail (winter) Cape Breton 
   A seven-kilometer, looping, hiking trail, Skyline Trail lies on the western side of the Cabot Trail, off HWY #30, near French Mountain’s summit.  Thank you to Cape Bretons Highlands National Park tourist information site for inspiring this painting, now included in the Michelle’s Hat Series.   “Beware the unfriendly wildlife! Hike with a friend.”
   The Michelle’s Hat Series (MHS) - B Calder has reproduced on canvas paintings from photographs her daughter M Calder has taken around Nova Scotia.  A percentage of all proceeds from sales of the MHS will be donated to TN (trigeminal neuralgia) research. 
   B Calder began professionally painting in 2021, after being forced to retire due to a disability called Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN). She has been a cottager on the Northumberland Strait for over 50 years and dreams of one day making it her permanent home.
