Between 1994 and 1996, I made paintings of the now-suburban Kitchener area around the Homer Watson Boulevard exit of the 401, and Homer Watson House Museum. My paintings were titled with titles from the list of Homer Watson’s missing works. In 1996, I also worked with now-suburban sites of works by Ozias Leduc in Mont Ste. Hilaire, Québec, and titled them with titles of missing Ozias Leduc paintings.
