Heaps of snow parking lot

Down at the Provigo parking lot, also the Pharmaprix parking lot, there are enormous heaps of snow, several meters high. Filled with grit and sand, the snow is white, blue and dark brown with flecks of black and yellow. In the background you see part of the tall condo on the corner of Sherbrooke and Cavendish, and some of the housing along Sherbrooke. I cleaned the wooden racks and elastics with soap and water to prevent unsightly runoff into the edges of my paintings, which helped things stay cleaner here. It was frigid weather despite a nice blue sky.
