The collection shows the artist’s movement from a restrained and subdued use of colour toward a more im- pressionistic and brighter palette. Although the majori- ty of the approximately 40 works are oil paintings, the display also includes some drawings, watercolours and acrylics. McHarg’s drawings and paintings have appeared in - the Images and Objects juried shows held in Terrace in past years and several were selected for the B.C. Festival of the Arts show. Some of the paintings ap- pearing in the current exhibi- tion feature views from Tenas Lookout in the 'Kispiox Valley.
