April Showers, Yonge Street, Toronto

16x20 oil on canvas
I do most of my paintings from photographs so it helps if you enjoy taking photos. I love taking pictures and heading out on a rainy day or during a snow storm and wondering what images will present themselves. Sometimes great scenes just happen, and other times I will stand in a spot for a long time waiting for just the right people or vehicles. The turquiose and orange of this sign was a perfect match for the Beck Taxi. 
This scene is from Yonge Street near Dundas Square.
