This painting is based on a very memorable day biking in Spain. We biked away after a wonderful lunch complete with a JUG of Sangria. The day was serene until the moment hours later when we realized we had left a backpack on one of the chairs at the outdoor restaurant. The backpack had nothing of value except one passport and we were flying home the next day!
After returning our rental bikes, breaking the handle on the suitcase trying to get to the train station on time (to go back to the town with the backpack), missing the train then having to take a cab over an hour away, the backpack was retrieved and we got back on the train to get to Barcelona to start the journey home to Canada. Needless to say, neither of us has enjoyed Sangria since then.
