Paris Residency at Cite Internationale des Arts

My studio had a view over the Seine and Ile st. Louis with its starkly beautiful monochrome townhouses and Notre dame to the side.Paris is truly infectious and not only did I have a very romantic experience I was also inspired to paint, which is not a medium I usually feel inspired to use. The subjects were not inspired by Paris, but maybe it was the relaxed atmosphere and watching the changing scene from my windows of the Seine changing colours and the patters of the tides and the bridges pretty illuminations at night and the booksellers on the footpath next to the river opening up their green wooden boxes and exhibiting their wares.
