'Sir Peter of Muskoka'

Pen, ink & watercolour

A couple of months ago, my friend Peter put up a selfie he took. It reminded me of Alex Colville's painting, 'To Prince Edward Island'. It was the two round lens' that prominently figured in the painting that captures the viewer's attention. It hit me the same way when I saw Peter's photo. It inspired me for that unknown, can't put your finger on it reason. I changed the background to something more in keeping with Peter, who is a long time resident & contributing citizen of our fair Muskoka, who served our high school students & empowering them with knowledge & passion in the history department throughout his teaching career & still beyond. To my disappointment, there was a flaw in the paper at the bottom. One has to seek to be resourceful & I put it down to be the shadow of the phone. Just play along : )
