Pulling the Sled
Oil on canvas, 4x4 canvas with easel |
Finally, after a few rather stressful days, dad is out of the hospital and steadily improving. It was quite a wrench tossed in to the holiday fray, the worst part being just how scary Friday morning was. I hope I will never again have to witness such a sight. With so much of the country in a deep freeze, and we awoke to a temperature of -9, the sun which has been shining brightly all day is such a welcome sight! It actually seems warm on the south facing front porch with the sun shining on my face as I remove a little snow. I feel like a can actually breathe, the last few days behind me. This painting makes 371 in 371 days and
Day 6 of the current 30 day painting challenge.
Beautiful painting. Hope your Dad continues to improve, all the best for him! Valerie

ReplyDeleteThis is so evocative of childhood memories! Trudging through the snow in Wellington boots pulling a heavy sledge, cold crisp air biting and nipping.... fantastic Tammy!!!
