We received the most incredible gift from our best friends for our wedding. They hired Lori to create a painting at Rock Lake in Algonquin Park where we got married on September 27th 2014. Rock Lake is a place that both my husband and I have visited since child hood and holds so many treasured memories. It is also a place that dates back in history for me as my grandfather was a river driver through the lakes of Algonquin and my grandmother a cook in the Lumber camp where they met and married. Their names remain on the wall of the Algonquin Logging museum to this day so you can imagine how special Algonquin Park is to me and my family. Along with this incredible painting called 'Rugged Beauty' Lori sent a lovely letter about her experience of choosing the paintings location during her visit to Rock Lake and a DVD with the transistions of the painting coming alive. It is truly one of the most amazing gifts we have ever received to have an original painting created personally for us as husband and wife in a place that means so much to us. It was and will remain a heartfelt work of art hanging in our home. Thank you Lori for such a beautiful work of art. We will cherish it always :) we really look forward to collecting more of your work :) Todd and Kelly Diminie

Lori goes above and beyond! Not only was the artwork fantastic, but the little extras like writing a note to the bride and groom and including a CD made it extra special! Would definitely order another piece of art! Nancy

Your work is magnificent, the colors are vivid and eye catching and appeal to me immensely!!

Very nice work - you do beautiful landscapes - have always been amazed by the Canadians, how they capture nature in their paintings.

Thank you Lori for your kind words about my art, it is so nurturing for the artist's spirit that besides our enthusiasm for painting somebody else feels the same way!, I checked out your paintings they are so beautiful I love them, and those line studies is my kind of graphics.

Nice work Lori !I've sent you a FB friend request

Your strength is in your landscape paintings, Lori. And yes, I do feel like I am there when I look at your images. :)

Some nice paintings. Surrounded by such beautiful and inspiring scenery how could you be anything else than a landscape painter.

Some great paintings! Nice to hear about a fellow Ontarian artist. :-)

Great work. Love to swap ideas. Take care

What a lovely journey you have been on and how nice of you to share it. I very much enjoyed viewing the photos of your paintings and everyone I saw found myself thinking I can't wait until you have a museum show so I can view all the originals. Everything I've seen of yours is wonderful. Congratulations!

Thanks for showing me your work Lori!

Gorgeous work Lori, Wishing you Great Success : )

Lori, it is beautiful work and took me back to the memories of that beautiful area of Canada.

Thank you for agreeing to lead the landscape painting sessions at Fool's Paradise during Doors Open Toronto 2013. The participants are sure to benefit from your knowledge and talent!

I met you on my mangrove kayaking tour in Dominical, Costa Rica. You ended up taking some amazing photographs of the wildlife on the tour. Now I find out you are not only an amazing photographer, but a talented artist! Your work is beautiful. Thank you for introducing me to your inspiring work!

I have to say how much I enjoy your work Lori. Time really tells a story here. Thanks for encouraging me with my work too.

Love your work! Pausing to look at your work, makes me slow down & enjoy. You are such a talented artist.

I wad going through your gallery and everything is amazing. I am not the least bit surprised. All through our chilehood you were always so talanted. I miss you friend and wish you all the best in the world. Get in touch with me if you can.

Dear Lori, just going through your gallery again and enjoying your beautiful works. I especially love your haliburton landscapes as they seem so nostalgic to me from my many years of camping. You are amazing and so wonderful to share your talents and inspire the children of Workman for all these years. Love from Karen, April 19, 2012

Autumn Swamp has twice stopped me in my tracks on the way to the office in Metro Hall. It captures the true beauty of Algonquin Park. I feel the crispness of the air and hear the slap of the beaver's tail in this picture. Absolutely stunning.

This beautiful painting jumped out at me heading back to my office in Metro Hall today and when I saw your name I thought get the heck out. It can't be THE Lori Kallay I knew from so long ago and low and behold it is. Congratulations Lori !! I'm so happy for you :D

Amazing works of beauty. True artistry.

Wow, I am really impressed with your creations. We are so thankful to have such a talented artist inspiring the next generation. Thanks for all you do for our students at JG Workman. Cheers.

WOW...Who knew I was in the presence of a great artist..WE have to talk...LOVE IT LOVE IT>>love you too...

Lori, you paintings are excellent! I feel the same about the outdoors as you do and your pictures really capture that feeling of awe and appreciation. Thanks for sharing with me! I look forward to see them in real life one day when I come to Toronto.

Your artwork is absolutely beautiful!

Lori. I had no idea! Your range of style and mastery of different paint media is remarkable. I love the snowmobile tracks, and the thunderhead over the lake. You are a great artist. You made me homesick for nature. H.

Your work is amazing! You certainly capture the essence of the Haliburton landscape. They are so realistic that it is easy to feel the serenity of the land and water. Incredible work, Lori!

Lori, I am in awe of your talent. All five senses react to your paintings! I can smell the cottage air, hear the water, feel the breeze...I will keep visiting the site until I am, once again, sitting on the dock. Can't wait to see more...Florida needs a little northern Ontario! Sarah

Lori, your work is spectacular. I couldn't pick a favourite because there were so many appealing paintings. Keep painting.

Beautiful expressions of the landscape Lori. You have a talent for conveying emotions through your work. I felt a sense of peace and solitude looking at them. Thank you for sharing your gift with the students and inspiring them.

My brother Tom told me about your artwork and this site. I'm glad that I took the time to look. Really nice stuff.

Great job! I appreciate what you have done for our young minds at Workman. I wish there were more people like you around to teach art the way you do.

Lori, a friend of mine, Patti, suggested I look at your website. What beautiful pieces that truly capture Ontario! Looking at them from Australia was like being able to visit home.

I am often very homesick for the true "North" in Ontario, I go to your website when I need to feel at peace and once again at home! Your work takes me there in seconds. You are an amazing Canadian talent, the beauty of our country and province shines through in all your work! Incredible! Love you, Glenna

We really enjoyed viewing your work Lori. You have such a wonderful gift!
