<B>Aleta's easel paintings</B> catch rhythm and movement in nature: trees gesture, snow reflects the sky, lines and colours appear to move on the canvas.  She prefers to paint outdoors, to see and feel the depth and movement and the quality of time and place that she seeks to communicate through her art. Her mission is to teach people to love the land and its inhabitants.</FONT>
