My latest paintings definitely look into the past, which seems to be a theme on my canvases lately.
My newest one is of a curious building in Cargill, Ontario. Apparently it was a general store once, but has long been abandoned, leaving the old crocks and mason jars on display in the windows. I had fun painting it in a wonky style. Across from this structure is The Mill Pond Gallery, a beautiful and inspiring art gallery, where this painting is now hanging. It also includes a great Café, and ice cream stand. Here is a short video of an interview with Kevin McKague, the owner of this quaint spot. I highly recommend it as an art experience for locals as well as tourists this summer. |
