Sliver of Provence France
A bucket list location, I long to stand in a lavender field in southern France someday. My teenage daugher is currently learning the language in school, and we promised her if she continued her studies of the language until her senior year (she's a freshman), we would fund a family trip to France. She's interested in southern France, which works out perfect! This is painted on Arches paper with Daniel Smith watercolors.

Tiny Lavender fields forever
I really liked the painting I made my dad named Lavender Field so much that I decided to paint a small replica for me. This one is a 5 x 5 using Graham Gouache. I did this one in an afternoon, and didn't include the old house this time. I am sort of obsessed with France's lavender fields, and hope to one day visit one just for the immersion in the scents and sights of this wonderful flower.
