"School's Out"

My new print is of Change Islands. I watched children get off of a school bus and run into a house. A few minutes later they ran out the back door, down over the hill on to a wharf and then jump in a boat. As they motored away from the dock, I could hear a woman's voice shouting, "Homework!" A friend pointed out to me, for Newfoundland children going out in a boat is a kind of homework.

I have removed their lifejackets, as I did not want the orange in the picture. They were playing safe.

The picture above is of the artist's proof, I hope to print the edition in the spring.
Because of the hand printing process, each sky is slightly different.

I am thrilled to let you know the NL Public Library now has
digital downloads of audio and ebooks.
Available 24/7 all you need is an internet connection and your library card.
I listen to audio books while I work and can say from experience,
audio books are the ultimate way to multi task!
