The Tree, the Runner & the Harbour (Jan 10, 2010)
When my husband travels he often brings me home the newspapers from the places he's been. So today's splash was inspired by a B&W photo of a runner in Point Pleasant Park in a recent Chronicle Herald from Halifax.
However I couldn't actually find the paper when I sat down to paint, so I painted what I remembered ... the tree, the man and the harbour. Very drippy and direct (not to mention overworked) ... just getting the image out of my system. Of note, this subject from a more interesting perspective would be fun to try in future.
