At the center of Trenholme park in NDG there is an old stone structure with white plaster and orange trim, likely a 1960's era construction. Inside there is a small volleyball court and during elections it is a voting station. I made this painting while waiting for the Thursday Lufa Farm vegetable delivery at park Trenholme. We click on the options on the web site and a truck brings it in a plastic bin for pickup each week. The weather was surprisingly nasty, with close to -20℃ windchill, but it did not deter my efforts. In the midst of doing a painting like this, I sometimes stop feeling the physical cold momentarily. Its all in your head really, although it could end up in frostbite if one is not careful. Hopefully the weekend is amenable for painting, it was a bit of a slow art week with the lousy weather and me being tired. Looking forward to the week off next week.
