On of the finest Art Galleries on Vancouver Island  
 
Rintje Raap always had a creative outlet over his many years of working as a chemist and a teacher. First it was photography, then drawing and finally painting, which added an exciting new dimension to his life. His favourite medium is oil pastel, which he applies on watercolour paper with his fingers. Rintje revels in the vibrant colours and the intimate, tactile connection. The medium also suits his interest in natural, sculpted forms. Compelled to paint, art represents freedom to Rintje. In the past two years, he has participated in several group or joint exhibitions in Sooke and Victoria.
