NIGHT CAFE

This is my first painting of 2011, and the first completed in my series of city night scenes. The cafe pictured above was in Paris. The cities that I will highlight are New York, Paris, Bruges and Amsterdam. It is views like this that first made Paris intriguing to me. The first time I went was with some fellow classmates during my internship in London a long, long time ago. We all had conflicts of interest, so I ended up roaming the Paris streets...alone...at night. I looked angry enough (because I was annoyed that nobody would hang out with me) that people left me alone. I went back to the area of St. Germain with my husband during our trip last April. He was a little easier to get along with than my old classmates though. This painting is on 20"h x 16"w stretched canvas. SOLD.
