“The Space Between” (2021) 32" X 18" acrylic on canvas painting by Reilly Fitzgerald. A familiar scene found on most Newfoundland & Labrador wharves where lines & floats secure & protect docked boats. This particular piece was inspired by the boats and wharf at Green's Harbour, NL.

"The Move" (2003) watercolour painting by Reilly Fitzgerald. The people of Newfoundland and Labrador: When our neighbours need help, we help them, without second thought, & without wondering what we will have to sacrifice. Hopefully the message of selflessness will once again gain hold in our world.

“Blue Puttees: Forget Me Not” (2021) acrylic on canvas painting by Reilly Fitzgerald. Though today is Canada Day, in Newfoundland and Labrador, since 1917, it is also a day when we honour those 700 soldiers of the 1st Newfoundland Regiment who lost their lives at Beaumont-Hamel in World War I.
