From the hilltop villiage of colorful Rousillon, Provence, the window and umbrella are connected by a grapevine climbing the wall.
Just outside my apartment in Provence, this flowershop beckoned me to paint it nearly everyday.
Up the hill from family friends, the Delphini’s, I painted this as their daughter watch me on their patio.
If you take time to look up when you visit the villages of Provence, treasures await.
This welcoming statue of Mary welcomed me to L’Isle sur la Sorgue where I lived February through April, 2017. Her loving presence all around me.
It’s a toss up – do I love poppies, sunflowers or lavender more. All bring me joy.
Painted en Plein Air at the Abbey surrounded by lavendar fields I could feel and breathe in the spirit all day.
Every season the vineyard draws me in. This spot was near Oppede, Provence and after searching I found myself painting there in the Spring.
