Summer 2013 has been all about painting junk, the over abundance of stuff we have in our households in North America. In this painting it is workshop stuff, tools, bags of garbage, bottles, plastic and various containers. All of it a challenge to paint. I set up the six foot canvas in a messy workshop and painted in on site. It rained most of the time I worked on the painting and the roof leaked. The next three paintings were done in indoor setting.
