To live is to choose. Our lives are made up from constant decisions we make. If someone dies from drug overdose, it’s because he chose to take it. If someone meets the best person in the universe, it’s because he decided to go to wherever he met that person. We need to make good decisions to live well. We need to know why are we choosing. We need to know what impact can the decision make in our life.
Answer:
Ann Hurst has lived and painted in Lions Bay since 1980 and is still amazed by the stunning and ever-changing array of scenescapes all around….Whistler, Howe Sound, North Shore and Vancouver…. that provide the inspirations to capture the moment.
Ann studied with Frances Landsberg at Studio-by-the-Sea, in West Vancouver, whose mentoring brought out the best of her natural impressionist talents. She was guest-artist in the BC Pavilion at Expo 86, and over the years a featured artist at many art shows and galleries in the area, including her own First Street Gallery. Her art has been featured on Lions Bay annual banners on several occasions, and has been donated to many worthy causes. Five art card series of 6 cards each: Blackcomb, Whistler, Sea to Sky and Vancouver 1&2 have been very popular gifts, still available today.
Ann is admired widely for capturing both the impression and the emotion of a scene in luminous watercolours and rich, bold oils. Her paintings are loved in homes all across Canada and in the USA, UK, Italy, and elsewhere.
Today, her Lions Bay home is her gallery, open by appointment.

Answer: Even English-speakers with a modicum of German can hear the difference between the lilting, almost musical tones of Austrian German versus the less lilting, more crisp sound of standard German (Hochdeutsch). Bavarian, on the other hand, is very similar to Austrian.
Both nations historically spoke the same language (German), so in that sense sometimes an Austrian (in many cases, a Viennese) composer might be regarded as German. The German nation we know today and who fought France and England in both world wars was originally Prussia and several other small German-speaking states located in northern European east of France. Austria was another German speaking confederation of lands that later became the Austro-Hungarian Empire and basically controlled the southern half of central/eastern Europe, extending from Prague and Cracow in the North to the Adriatic Sea in the South. The Hapsburgs controlled it for the most part. The term 'German' when used to describe music likely refers to the language, regardless of whether it was a composer working in Berlin (Germany) or Vienna (Austria).
