In the middle of campus, our home, and the Meunerie Urbane (a local bakery) lies William-Hurst Park. I am starting to think of it as Bread Park since I am always on my way back from buying bread and stop there to make a quick painting. The painting was done with a number 16 synthetic brush (Princeton, Neptune), part of a set I bought from Kama Pigment to replace my old beat up collection of brushes. It produces interesting brush strokes and can hold a lot of paint, but still has a sharp point for detail. I like the light, airy feel to this painting, it conveys a sense of a breezy cool summer's day. A fellow practicing his golf putting took notice and asked if it was a watercolour? Yup I replied.
