Sidewalk Cafe in Spain

 

I can't remember the name of this town, unfortunately, but it had a cheerful cafe street. I plan to paint more of its cafes soon. When I snapped the reference photo for this painting, I had just left a lunch establishment that was part of a small resort. People were roasting red peppers over an open fire. Resident Siamese cats watched them work while they relaxed in the shade. It was probably the most expensive lunch I had in northern Spain, but the rustic flavors of both the food and the coffee were worth the indulgence. It gave me energy for the next 10k of hiking. Oil on 14" x 11" stretched linen.
