Fun on the River Cam, Cambridge

About this Painting

This painting of Trinity College, Cambridge, England, was commissioned by Gibsons Games for a large 1000-piece jigsaw, which they will be publishing in 2014.

It shows the River Cam running behind Trinity College, with a variety of people enjoying the nice weather. My favourite dog, Oscar, also makes another appearance.

My family and I spent a few days over a recent Christmas holiday assembling the jigsaw and found it an enjoyable challenge. The sky was the toughest part.
