Update July 19, 2011
Cheryl and I are back in Auvillar for our third season with VCCA-France in Auvillar, so it's 6 months here, 6 in Vancouver, and so on.....
Update July 15, 2009
Cheryl and I are living in Auvillar, Tarn et Garonne, France until the end of November. She's acting as Directrice of the VCCA-France Artist's Residency here. Our photos have taken a decidedly touristy turn, but hopefully you'll still enjoy them as much as we're enjoying our stay here.
We're doing a blog when we can - france.cherylfortier.com/

Original profile
Artist wife Cheryl Fortier and I roam the BC Coast in our 1949 52' Chris-Craft Sovereign. We're both avid photographers, using images to illustrate occasional articles for magazines such as Pacific Yachting, and to provide raw material for Cheryl's paintings. These photos were taken by one of us...

Paul Tixier says:
"Watching John and Cheryl's pictures makes me feel like I am on their boat, sailing freely along the west coast and discovering all its treasures. Wherever they anchor, they capture the best of all the beauties around them.
Marine wildlife is a passion we have in common, and I am very glad to know somebody having so much respect for all the wonderful creatures of this world, their work provide a great message to people.
When I see that they have uploaded pictures, I get my mind ready to travel for a while, and then it feels so good..
Thank you John and Cheryl!"1st February, 2007
