My godson just pointed out to me it's a lamppost, he thinks it must be Narnia inspired. We've been reading the Chronicles for months and I am pleased he is now into a book on the mythological references in those books. It's a lamppost and fence in our funky little town. At a recent local art show, I saw a photographer's shot of the same location. acrylic on gallery style canvas 12" x 12" copyright 2005 Kathryn Semolic
