my driveway

Almost at the half-way point. This is the last of my acrylic paintings in this style where I have captured the textures, colours and open spaces of my rural existence. In took a photo on my phone of the lovely trees silhouetted against the sky one afternoon as I drove off the main road and a painting was born.

Fivebough Canal, Leeton.
