Roma, Queensland has some fine old pubs in the old Queensland traditional colonial style. They represent an individuality from times past which is disappearing in this modern age. My acrylic painting was accomplished with small, on the spot sketches initially, then I did a larger acrylic version back in my studio, using thick layers of paint. There is a certain amount of artistic licence here - the main street of Roma is certainly not dirt these days - but this is my interpretation of the scene. The two pedestrians having a conversation in the middle of the road is not all unusual, the further West that you go.
