This week’s art is a thick acrylic paint-on leftover floor tile still life, based on the view in our roomette on The Cardinal, on our way back from New York a couple of weeks ago.

I took a few photos for reference, but basically just liked the way the tray looked against the windows when it was folded away.

A person can get bored on a 14-hour train trip.

I used brushes, bits of foam, broken plastic utensils and just a bit of my fingers to push the thick paint where I wanted it to go. The I photographed it in overcast daylight and color-corrected it once it was in the computer.
