Installation des peintures à Soleure en Suisse juillet 2011

Here I am, back to Vancouver, after a wonderful trip to Switzerland and Soleure in particular.



I went to Soleure to package my 61 paintings in plastic cover, label them and most of all meet Mr Peter Lukas, the organisator of the event. He was very kind and very organized, as good swiss german people are, with all the material ready and a large table to work on. Nicole a friend, Tamara my dautgther and Mark my husband, were there to assist me. It was very nice and enjoyable to work with them. It was quiet a assembly line, but in about 2 hours we were done. Mr Peter Lukas invited me to bring a larger painting as well which was a bonus for me and I appreciate very much the opportunity.




After that, we went for a ``business lunch`` in the old town of Soleure. Beautiful lunch along the Aar river, the food was also artisticly presented, the whole experience was enjoyable. Soleure is apparently, the nicest baroque town in Switzerland, located on the Aar river and among lots of historical buildings has a Cathedrale dated of 1773.






All in all, I am very happy I went to Soleure. Of course I am also looking forward to the Opening on the 10th of November when I will be back to gread my family and friends.

Here are some of the paintings that you will be able to see there and if you would like to see more please go on my website to see all them. nsartists.ca/catherinefields
