Paris. November 13, 2015
20x30 oil on canvas
Ironic that I was working on this painting of Paris, when the city was attacked last Friday. My original plan was to name it "time out", but as I finished the picture today and thought about the loss, all I could see were the empty seats.
I really love this painting Julie. I can just imagine that park in my mind's eye normally so full of people, just as our courtyard usually is on a Saturday afternoon. This past Saturday there was no one about, no children playing together, no laughter, no joyfull noises for parents to hear. Our streets were almost a ghost town. But life came back a little on Sunday and more on Monday. Thank you for this painting; a perfect reminder
