Home from Church

10x8 oil on panel
so this is interesting.  my physician father died in 1971. he was an avid photographer...darkroom on the third floor - pans of developer and toner..smelly stuff..but i loved to watch him work...black and white images magically appearing out of sloshing pans..hung up to dry...he had so many photos -i've had this photo for years - probably taken on a trip to europe with my mom...i had to dream up my own color of course..but he had a great eye and sense of composition....i wasn't sure if i wanted to add the cross but then decided to be true to the idea of the thing..i'll post a better picture after i decide if i'm done!
