Painting on location – Provence, France
I thought it would be fun to share some of the art from the participants that went to Provence with me, September 2009. Everyday we would go out on location to paint. We would often finish up our paintings at our hotel, le Hotel du Soleil.
This is Mary Anne’s beautiful painting of Daudet’s Windmill near Fontvieille |
The lesson for this day was about how to create volume and how to make something look round. I think that Mary Anne did a wonderful job!
Below is Irene’s interpretation of the women who do the traditional dance of Provence. I love her choice of colors. She really captured the beautiful dresses the women used to wear.
