A mother pulling a Christmas tree on a sleigh with her child telling her
something. Three childern, one of which is sitting on a sleigh, being
drawn by the eldest. A chap on his bicycle stopping to greet a friend.
The whole city is covered in white, childern are loving it. The roads
are a mess, and people are being encouraged to take public
transportation. It was a lovely brisk sunny day yesterday, thus despite
the freezing temperature, I took it upon myself to capture this unique
situation, here in my neighbourhood. The theme of this work is snow,
thus that is the point of interest I wanted to bring across. Therefore I
purposely did not pay attention to the detail of the architecture of
the houses. Rather choosing to highlight the effect of the freshly
frozen snow on the objects at hand.

Cala Figuera, Mallorca, Spain
oil on wood, 4 x 6 inches
painted on location - 21 Sept 2012
SOLD
This small work shows a fishing boat getting some repair done on the propeller. Posting two small works made while on a short visit to family/friends on the island Majorca, Spain.
The light there was so strong and powerful, it had a great influence on these small oil sketches.
