Decor Ideas

Mike Grandmaison’s timeless and exquisite landscapes and inspirational, intimate views of the natural world may be viewed via a number of Portfolios or Galleries.

Lichens on Rock | Manitoba | Canada

From Polyptychs - a series of images that, together, complement and enhance. When combining 2, 3 or more images, the new creation often becomes greater than the sum of its parts.

Fundy Forest | Alma, New Brunswick | Canada

From Trees and Forests - a celebration of our life-sustaining companions. Trees beautify our surroundings, purify our air, act as sound barriers, and manufacture precious oxygen. They affect our climate by moderating the effects of the sun, wind and rain. Trees provide shelter for wildlife and they also act as a carbon sink by removing carbon dioxide from the air and storing it as cellulose in their trunks, branches, and roots. Last but not least, trees also provide us with inspiring subject matter for our art. This collection features trees in all seasons and from a wide variety of habitats.

Mountain In Fog | Pyramid Mountain | Jasper National Park, Alberta | Canada

From Black & White, we explore the world of line, shape, form, and texture in monochromatic splendour. Nature’s palette is transformed into subtle shades of grays or extreme contrast of black & white, bringing natural subjects to life.

From Wildlife, we offer a collection of portraits of Canadian creatures, great and small, rare and common. It also features wildlife in their natural environments - sharing those exquisite moments when we encounter fellow beings from the animal kingdom in the wild.

Grasses Along The Seine River | Winnipeg, Manitoba | Canada

From Winter Wonderland - a potpourri of what Mother Nature throws at us when it cloaks much of this country in a blanket of snow. For a large part of the year, the land is often magically transformed as snow and ice simplify the landscape by hiding much of the clutter. From hoarfrost covered trees and grasses, to sparkling ice lit by golden light to captivating sun dogs, explore our frosty wonderlands.

Dawn Sky at Long Beach | Pacific Rim National Park, British Columbia | Canada

From Skyscapes - a showcase of the vast, constantly-changing heavens and cloudscapes that frame our great land. The pure air of our countryside affords a clarity to our vistas that is unsurpassed. Be dazzled by interesting cloud formations, exquisite light, and wonderful sky phenomena—including our infamous northern lights. This is truly the “Land of the Living Skies.”

Pyramid Lake at Sunrise| Jasper National Park, Alberta | Canada

From Panoramas, we unveil wide, unbroken views of Canada’s varied landscapes.

These sweeping vistas reveal the wide open spaces that this country is well known for.

Sunset on the Prairie | Maple Creek, Saskatchewan | Canada

From Prairiescapes - a medley of wide open spaces and quiet, prairie land.

Prairies are some of the most intriguing lands in the country.
