With "À vos traîneaux , partez!" (Get your sleds ready!) , Pauline Larouche celebrates one of the great pleasures of a Quebec winter: sledding with the family. Created using mixed media acrylics and collage of art papers on a 12 x 12 inch gallery canvas , this original work evokes the laughter, camaraderie, and memories that are made when the snow transforms the mountain into a vast playground.

Once the ski slopes close, the mountain continues to thrive. At Mont Édouard , specially groomed trails allow young and old alike to extend their day with a sleigh ride. In the center of the composition, a brightly colored figure seems to beckon visitors to head down the snowy slopes, while in the background, children are thoroughly enjoying this winter activity.

As in many of her creations, Pauline Larouche begins her work with a collage of art papers . The printed words, textures, and patterns remain visible beneath thin layers of transparent acrylic. This technique lends depth, movement, and richness to the composition. The fuchsia, turquoise, purple, and white colors create a luminous contrast that conveys both the cold of winter and the warmth of shared moments.

"Get your sleds ready!" is a work that reminds us that the most beautiful memories often arise from the simplest pleasures. It will appeal to contemporary art enthusiasts, lovers of Quebec winters, and families looking to add a vibrant, colorful, and emotional piece to their décor.
