Brecon Canal near Abergavenny Oil

A canal boat is progressing along the Brecon canal near Abergavenny in Wales. The canal runs through steeply wooded hills and past a few white buildings. I walked this path that was once the towpath for canal barges, it is a very scenic walk. I have given the trees the fresh, acid green colours of spring, and put a walker on the path in the distance. I see it as a cheerful and hopeful painting, with all the promise that a nice spring day gives us.
I have painted the edges of the canvas so that it can be hung on the wall without a frame if wished. I will ship in a cardboard box.
