Robert Bateman is a world renowned Canadian artist who specializes in painting wildlife, and this 5000 square foot gallery is named after him.  Perhaps it should come as no surprise that this gallery features an ample helping of his work - over 100 pieces.  They range from typical Canadian animals in misty winter landscapes, to wildlife inhabitants on the African plains.  In certain areas of the gallery, electronic displays can be controlled by a nearby podium to select which artwork to display, or motion sensors near paintings of birds can trigger the sound of the depicted species of bird chirping.

If you’re a fan of Robert Bateman’s work, or enjoy paintings of nature and wildlife, then this gallery is something to keep in mind.(GC)
