We are pleased to hear that France Tremblay's painting,"Southeast View from Zabriskie Point" depicting a landscape observed at the Death Valley National Park in California was chosen as the Grand Prize Winner, obtaining first place in the "Paint the Parks" (2008) competition. France Tremblay, Ottawa area artist, is represented by Tay River Gallery in Perth and a small selection of works by France can be viewed at the gallery.
"Paint the Parks" (formerly called "Arts in the Parks") is a prestigious artist competition in the United States. Each year, it commissions a professional panel of jurors to select from thousands of entries the hundred winning images, well known as the "Top 100".

Also in the artist's news, France's artwork entitled "The Sovereign" has been selected as a finalist (Top 40) in the Wildlife Art category of The Artist's Magazine Annual Art Competition (2008). This is a significant accomplishment, as this worldwide competition attracts around 15000 professional artist participants every year. France will be congratulated in the December issue of the magazine.
