Royal Mail in the Snow

Royal Mail in the Snow
Oil on canvas board
8"x8"
SOLD
This road is very familiar to me ,its a little hill and my friend lived there from when we were eight until her family moved away twelve years later.One day on our way to college I fell just next to that post box ,it had snowed and then iced over the night before.Its funny ,at that age it didn't even hurt .

We're still friends but living in different towns makes it a long distance friendship.Everytime I pass this road my heart feels a little pain ,I miss those times.

    I am loving the blues in the snow and the way you painted the road. You can always tell when there is a personal connection to the subject - thanks for sharing the memory.
