1351 Barrington Street

Developers have applied to demolish this Halifax Heritage Property. I feel saddened when iconic architecture begins to disappear from the urban landscape. Not a stone's throw from here sits the grand Government House while across the street lies The Old Burying Ground and Dalhousie University campus. Altering this part of the city will alter the character of a special community.

I decided to paint 1351 Barrington Street in portrait style with a top-left to lower-right diagonal of interesting details and textures. This adds some grunge feel to the scene. The diagonal warmth is emphasized by contrasting blue washes in the opposite corners. Media used, in addition to watercolour, were pastel, charcoal, ink, and a hint of collage.

My artwork is shipped to you freight-free, unframed, within North America, unless otherwise noted or arranged.
