Walking

And to the final piece for our painting class...

The topic for this painting was "The Walk". We were asked to think about what walking meant to us and to portray it on canvas in some fashion. Well, I had loads of ideas, but finally settled on walking in the city from a child's point of view: all the enormous grownups rushing around in their business suits, too intent on their destination to stop and enjoy the little things in life. In this instance, the "little things" are the flowers, which are actually much larger than the ones I saw on side of the road in Quesnel, but a child would see those as the most important items on a walk, wouldn't he?
