Ed Ashton is an Alberta artist living in Grande Prairie, and a member of the Artists North Society. Ed's interest in Alberta's Grain Elevators began several years ago, and he began to amass a collection of personal photographs, newspaper clippings, Internet photographs, snap shots from friends, and pictures from the library archives. Ed has been painting watercolor paintings of the Alberta elevators for the past eight years, and with his broad collection of pictures, is able to paint original watercolor paintings of most any elevator site that was or is in the province of Alberta.

An original watercolor painting of the original elevator site where you grew up, live or have lived might be something you would like to own. The following is available:

• Original water color paintings, 8x11 inches or 11x14 inches, double matted in an oak frame, of most any elevator site in Alberta.
• Original watercolor paintings, 8x11 inches or 11x14 inches, unmatted and unframed, of most any elevator site in Alberta.
• Prints available specifically of originals done
• Prints available of some other sites, where originals have already been done
• Elevator sites consist mainly of Alberta Wheat Pool. Some sites consist of UGG, National, Pioneer and other brand name elevators.
• Watercolor painting sizes other than 8x11 inches or 11x14 inches can be arranged.
• Commissions for paintings other than the elevator sites will gladly be accepted
