View this post on Instagram My first job was delivering newspapers for the Vancouver Sun. The house in the painting is my childhood home. My brothers and I spent years trying to kill each other on that lawn. There are a lot of Easter eggs in the painting, including my idol, John Candy on the front page of the newspaper. The house no longer stands but it’s a living, breathing thing in my head. This piece of art is the greatest present my wife has ever given me. It was created by @dannygalieote. If there’s ever a fire, I’m grabbing this first. I’ll come back for Blake.A post shared by Ryan Reynolds (@vancityreynolds) on Aug 14, 2019 at 4:48pm PDT Reynolds wrote on Instagram: “My first job was delivering newspapers for the Vancouver Sun. “The house in the painting is my childhood home.
