This was the sunset the other day.
The hill with trees is actually an ancient burial place.

Afternoon in Paris


Afternoon in Paris
7.75 x 7.75 inches. (20x20cm)
Original painting. Acrylic on canvas.
Available in my Etsy Shop
When I was living in Paris I would often go to the various parks and on one of my trips to Jardin des Plantes (the botanical garden) I decided to paint the people out for an afternoon walk. Did you ever notice how nicely everyone dresses, even for a casual walk in the park? Women wearing dresses and men in sharply pressed shirts or suits. Trés chic!

Painting in Provence - in the footsteps of Vincent van Gogh

Some years ago I visited Arles in Southern Provence, and ofcause I had to try and visit the sites in the footsteps of Vincent van Gogh. Here I am sketching at the upper level at the hosptal in Arles. From there is a most beautiful view of the whole courtyard.

Paris Rooftops


Paris Rooftops
8x8 inches. (20x20cm)
Original painting sold.
Prints available from my Etsy Shop

This painting shows the view of some of the rooftops near the Pompidou Museum in Paris. I love the architecture and old building there and the soft yellows and greyish-blues are beautiful. One of the first things I noticed when I arrived in Paris was the incredible number of chimneys they have!
