Down by the Alexis Nihon mall, near the old forum, there is a vacant lot that gives a view of an old fashioned window on a building. One day this spot will likely be filled up with a condo development, but for today it was a location for an artist. The insulating foam on the building to the left contained a variety of yellow that I captured using some van Gogh-inspired shades of yellow. The rest of the painting was a symphony of beige, including a raw sienna version that I created with yellow ochre and burnt sienna (Py43, PR101). For the fire hydrant I used the pyrol red (PR254).
