Rain rain go away!


The rain subsided enough for me to get out at lunch hour and pick up a sandwich and bread at Snowdon bakery. It started up again and I made a quick painting from under the front of the City Fruterie strip mall on Harley street.

It was a water park in more ways than one, down in Coffee Park. They built a water play area for kids here, I just painted the scene since it was one of the few areas with an overhang and some rain protection. A commuter train went by in the background.

All the leaves were on the ground, from last year. As old leaves decay they fertilize the grass and roots of the trees for more growth. Soon things will start growing again and I look forward to seeing some flowers.
