Sports Dome and PERFORM Centre Spring


 Today was another hot and muggy day, mostly overcast which made it possible to stand out in the open and do this painting from a similar vantage point as last winter. It was hard to judge the exact spot because in the winter this lane-way was bordered by great mounds of snow and looked quite different. Today the dome appeared to blend into the overcast sky, and the PERFORM Centre (french spelling) window was reflecting the foliage that they planted beside the building. It is nearly 10 years now exactly that I joined Concordia University and started doing research in the laboratory that is located on the top floor of the Centre. I also played a lot of Ultimate (frisbee) in that dome. Usually they dismantle it after the winter but since the pandemic it has stayed up all year around, unused. One of my biggest blog fans liked to see the paintings done of the same subject but different times of year. So here is another one!
