After work I picked up a few things at Snowdon bakery on Harley street then made a couple of paintings down the street at the field. The field is an undeveloped plot of land that Reno depot (now Rona+) donated to the community and now its a community garden, flower area, and they recently planted several rows of trees. In the background, you see the tree line that grew up along the fence next to the train tracks, while the newly planted trees are seen in the foreground. The new trees are aspiring to be bigger!

Next to the field is the loading dock and storage area for Rona+. The fence has vines growing on it, which were painted last after the colourful inventory was completed in the background. Of course, I fit in a small neon orange pylon on the bottom left. Pylons are practically my signature by now, although I added PJD25 for good measure. The pylon is done with a mixture I call "Montreal orange" after all the pylons they have here, its mostly benzi orange (PO62) with a dab of pyrol orange (PO73).
