Montpon, France, 15" x 11".
Another shot at the centre of this town on South West France. I think the building in the middle is an employment office - looks more like a Hotel or the Marie's office to me. Key points to this painting - 1) sky quickly done with some random spots of clear water then dropping in some clouds and finally some cerulean blue for bits of sky. Then 2) carefully painting around the street lights and tops of cars to fill them in at a later stage. The balls of the street lights were done with a bit of white gouache mixed up with some paint in the palette to give it that light grey colour.
