Lunch Time in Aix en Provence

 

This shaded cafe in Aix en Provence is full during lunchtime. Even though it is sweltering outside, people would rather be outdoors than in a dark cafe. The cafe interiors are a welcome sight on a rainy day, of course. But it is always nice to look at the effects that the sunshine creates on the stone walkways, buildings, and awnings from a shady spot. Oil on 18" x 24" stretched linen. SOLD.

Luminary

The lady in the window is a luminaire, and is the luminary of this painting. When it is cold outside in Toronto, the extravagant light fixture entices people to enter the cozy restaurant and have some bouillabaisse and a Merlot. From outside it appears to be a French bistro, but it is actually part of a very large, cafeteria style restaurant that serves any kind of food a person could want. SOLD.

Winter in Central Park

Yes, this is me in Central park. I needed a person in this picture and I was the only one around. 9" w x 12" h oil on canvas. Not for Sale.

After Dinner

This is an oldie...I painted it in 2006. The painting pictures a lady finishing a glass of wine after dinner. SOLD
