Canoes to Honour the Group of Seven
Huntsville, ON – Gerry Lantaigne is a graduate of the Ontario College of Art and an incredibly gifted artist who is starting his fourth year as a REALTOR® with Sutton Group - Muskoka Realty Inc. Jamie Lockwood and Trevor Docherty, Broker Owners of Sutton Group - Muskoka, are pleased to note that this very talented member of their team has been selected to commemorate Canada’s famous Group of Seven landscape painters.
“This year represents the 100th anniversary of the formation of the Group of Seven. Gerry will be painting five of seven canoes with a reproduced work of each member of the group,” says Jamie Lockwood.
“Known for his work on the Group of Seven Outdoor Gallery murals, Gerry has been a fixture of the Muskoka region, contributing to the beautification and enrichment of our community for over 20 years.”
Gerry’s dedication to the arts community and his success with the Outdoor Gallery earned him a special honour: during the G8 conference in Huntsville in 2010, he served as the Art Director to world leaders including former President Barack Obama. Over the years, he has volunteered countless hours to supporting the arts in the Muskoka region.
His real estate career with Sutton Group – Muskoka began in September 2018. Pursuing an entirely new career can be daunting, but the Broker/Owners saw an artist’s attention to detail at work. Not only did their new agent apply himself to learning the intricacies of real estate transactions, Gerry has strong networking skills.
“He has taken his knowledge of the area and his contacts and turned them into a successful beginning of his real estate journey,” says Jamie. “Gerry’s dedication and skill with his art vision has added to his early success in this field.”
