Canada Day plein air painting challenge. I rode around on my bike for almost one hour before I saw this old church on a side street. The location was perfect, in the shade and out of the way, so I set up my portable easel and paint box and got to work. I’ve no idea how old this place is, but it has a bland modern church on the front of it, which conceals this lovely older part completely from the main street. Nobody builds in this style today, but I like it better than many contemporary buildings.



I wonder what the ugly new addition is hiding? This image is timeless and elegant and makes me want to see what’s inside. Beautiful painting. Worth the hours ride to discover it.
