Tree in blossom, market square, St Foy la Grande, France

St Foy la Grande, France, 15" x 11".

The market square in this town in the South West of France.  A mixture of stone buildings, more recent, and some older buildings maybe 500 years old with exterior timber supports.  I decided to have a row of cars on the right and then connect the foreground shadows to them.  A more elaborate option might be to make the sun higher the shadows shorter, have the figures highlighted and then their shadows going over to the cars.  Maybe the next one.... 

Another 3-colour painting.

This one I think demostrates the fact
that value works hard and colour takes
the credit. Eyes go to the top
of the tree, unique conbination of
colour and the part of pinky blossom tree
attracts me firstly to appreciate the whole
painting. Really great work.
Thank you.
