Under the Highway

UNDER THE HIGHWAY

The train has come to the end of the line and just as it is when I am really on the train I am more than ready to get off and begin the next adventure.   However, there is still the business of getting through the station and out into the world again.  In this case there is one more painting from the series.  By now the snow is melted and spring is here but on this canvas it still exists and I must deal with it.

At the time it was interesting to see little glimpses of nature through the bridge abutments.  Now I wish I could see the new life that has sprung up there or have a painting of daffodils to show.  And so it goes in life, our unfinshed business keeps us from the pleasures of the day.

But wait...  Here is last year's Daffodil which along with some other of my spring paintings can now be seen at Graver's Lane Gallery.
