It's been an interesting journey painting Samoens, France. As I focus on the painting, each brush stroke takes me back to our trip there. Cycling in the morning to get fresh croissants.....stopping at the local bakery in the afternoon to get the best sandwiches I have ever had.....sharing a fondue dinner with friends that is to die for. Oh....the wine was beyond good!
After I painted the mountains, I began to work on the town...shades of Burnt Umber and Sienna for the rooftops, New Gamboge for the walls of the local apartments, and Paynes Gray for the road that winds thru the village.
What a great trip....what a fun painting to create.
