Description
Fairmount and St.Urbain is one of the busiest corners in the Plateau Mont Royal borough of Montreal. People are constantly hurrying and scurrying, buying basic good food at their favorite eateries. Several times a year, my pals and I head over to one of our favorite bakeshops, the House of the Original Fairmount Bagel, aka " La Maison de L'Original Fairmount Bagel'. The aroma inside is "to drool for", hot delicious bagels baked in wood ovens before your very eyes, fresh, soft and gigantically wonderful to devour. There are plenty of flavours to try but I stick to a dozen sesame seed bagels, cut in half. Half is large enough to satisfy, especially if you slather it with cream cheese and a slice of smoked salmon aka, "lox" and that makes such a fab brunch.;finger food that energizes me as a daily painter of these Montreal storefront scenes. Luckily, we find a place to park the red car you see depicted in this painting.
It's another cold March day, almost spring but snow still covers the roads and streets. Five jersey-clad lads entertain us with their hockey practice in the lane way beside the shop. Many apartments and flats in this neighborhood house families with kids and pets and happy good suburban folks. People know how to cook around here, come in summer when windows are open and the smells of great homemade meals will whet your appetite.
Places like Fairmount Bakery double as delis and depanneurs and you can usually find many of the products sold in the larger stores. Today, we leave with lots of good stuff, enough to feed the hungry army which consists of my four fellow travellers.
With a wave goodbye to the hockey boys,we head west, vowing to return soon, when Spring has finally sprung; and yes, our moveable feast marches on.
Hope you like my newest interpretation of this famous Montreal landmark, a real institution in our great city. You may purchase this 8X10 hand painted original on canvas panel directly from my gallery/ studio , Galerie toile Etoile.
Prints on canvas and on paper along with a wide variety of products can be purchased from this website.Fine Art America custom makes your order in the size and format of your choice and can ship to any address anywhere in the world.
See you next time, your daily painter pal signing off happily munching on a bagel this evening.
