Culvert, Seine River
oil
19.8 x 16.5 cm (7.75" x 6.5")

Earlier this month I posted the sketch for this painting. Usually the sketches have more power than the paintings themselves. Of the two, the sketch and the painting, I am not sure which I prefer.

Immediately below, for the sake of comparison, is the sketch for this painting. It was originally posted on July 5th, 2007.

This culvert is almost at the mouth of Seine River in Winnipeg, where the Seine and Red Rivers meet.
