Beautiful work, Julien! I can almost "feel" the sunshine in this painting.

Well done!

Julian

Don't worry Karin, it will not be like your last visit, there are even leaves on the trees!!

Deb

Always enjoy viewing your work Julien! This could be one of your best. You capture the textures of the of the tree and poopy feilds exquisitely...

I told a dear friend of mine:
-if you think you are depressed and experiencing loss of interest in eveything, do not rush, definitely not, to your physician,but go please to JMS website to day and look at "Morning, les Couguieux"... So imagine that you are strolling about on that sloping path of light you see far away... listen to the birds singing, smell deeply the fragrances of the fields and flowers, imagine the coming days of grape harvest, look at the swallowtail butterflies hang-gliding in the air around you, then stop and have a break: you are smiling, my friend."

Painter’s notes

We are presently in the middle of workshops, one May course completed, one to come. To avoid the Friday mistral over at la Madelene, we brought the painters to les Couguieux to paint the poppy field below our house (in our momentarily wind free corner of provence). I painted the same field this morning (with blue hills!!). More photos here on the blog
