I stood across the street from this little café in the Byward Market, Ottawa, Ontario for the longest time just waiting for right person to pass in front.  I wanted someone on a bike to convey to feeling of a hot summer day with customers on the terasse sipping their cold Stella Artois beer!  This oil painting was later done in my studio from the photo.
