HENRY TRASK REILLY

Working out of his home studio, Hank has amassed over 200 paintings! He sketches from life or uses photographs. While most all artists use their hands to work the paintbrush, Hank uses his hands and fingers to manipulate the paint from the very beginning, saving him time and energy when first developing his paintings. If he changes his mind about the way things are going, one swoosh of his hands and presto a blank board to work with. Come and see how deftly Hank uses light in his paintings. His landscapes are familiar and encourage you to take a second and third look.

I love Henry Trask Reilly works and I have two originals, but have no idea when they were painted. One is of a scene in Ottawa, it is Canada Day, I believe, the other is of two ladies sitting in a part watching people pass by. Would love to know when they were painted.
