Anyway, here's my entry:

Before the War - 50cm x 91cm oil on canvas
This painting was inspired by photographs taken at a Congregational Church Picnic on the Hobart Domain in the early 20th Century - before the War. The ladies enjoy a friendly game; the gentlemen watch from the shadows. You can read premonitions of coming events into it if you want to.
