Parc Lafontaine. an oasis in one of the hearts of Montreal
I sat at this scene the other day, painting. It happened to be on a crest, and I felt the loveliest breeze lifting off the water. There were some rogue, illegal bathers splashing away down below, but no-one seemed to mind. Their laughter and belly flops filled the air with the sound of children, even though they were well into their forties.
In the comments I’m going to try to write some Haiku about this. I am serious. Please join in the fun if you will…

I’ve never written a haiku, but that photo sure did make me wish I could make it to your classes. End of August! 😉
never wrote haiku
but in August, painting will
ensue, in a park
