The ice is in my painting water from my studio. It is -21 degrees today!

Thursday 13. 01. 22 This is where I lived after I got my job as art director at Macmillan of Canada. It was owned by Ruby and was a Rooming house. I lived there with 4 ladies and had my own bedsit at $12 a week! We all ate together in the basement. I lived there until I got married. It looks much different now.
