There may be tons of snow outside in the Laurentians but inside I have found the best lighting for painting/artwork -- in the laundry room of all places. The perfect winter studio for doing sculpture work. The iconic Tom Thomson trees is part of Canadiania and I was itching to use the foam core for this particular project. I am interested in the profile/outline of the trees and turning the form into a vehicle for abstraction in the painting of them by pouring the acrylics.
