A richly textured oil painting of St. John's famous Jellybean Row, where colourful row houses climb a steep street in ochre, soft pink, sea green, pale blue and cream. Thick impasto brushstrokes block in each facade, filling the frame edge to edge under soft grey overcast light. Every doorway and window is left blank and unmarked, letting the vibrant stacked shapes and layered colour carry the scene.
