A personal note about this piece:

This painting is part of a series representing artifacts of recent past necessities. Once commonplace in many regions, this is an outhouse behind the one-room schoolhouse my mom went to in the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada. The small structure left to the elements and the passage of time is a capsule of a once-ubiquitous way of life.

This painting was made with thick layers of oil paint, applied with a palette knife. –Æ
