I started the Swamp last year but put it aside for a long time. I worked on it again on and off this year and just did the finishing touches yesterday. I think it is done.

I had been thinking of doing a portrait of an old couple for quite a long time. I saw a couple in their late 70’s (I think) on the bus but was too embarrassed to take a photo. So, I searched the web and found an image I based Afternoon Stroll on. I started this in March and just finished it yesterday.
