I am mixing things up this week and so here is a new painting on Wednesday.  This is the third and final work in my "gift for my interns" series.

Friday Art-18-22 King St E


There has been a lot of discussion of late about 18-22 King St E in Hamilton.  It was going to be torn down, then it wasn't, then fences went up and machinery moved in and then once again it was stalled.  A lot of discussion then turned to the facade facing Gore Park and how much (or little) could be saved to satisfy the heritage question.  I will leave those discussions for others, but will only say that the back of the building is my favourite part.  Above, is a painting that I did a few years ago.  For some reason it was always the architectural features of the back that caught my eye and captured my imagination.  A slightly different, and more shocking view is scene below.
