When I got back from my exciting walk downtown Bolton, where I saw a squirrel, shops, and boarded up houses, I was extremely hot and sweaty due to the record breaking temperatures. Then I walked past one of the neighbor's yard who has a small pool. Several people walked by and I had my joke ready (If I cant swim in it, at least I can paint it), but nobody asked me what I was doing! Psychologically, my body cooled down just staring into the shimmering turquoise water. It was all I could do not to hop the small fence and canon-ball in there. When thinking about this year's extreme heat wave, this is the painting that will come to mind.
