At the Louvre to see Mona, my Italian mother's favorite painting. Hectic and crazy today because Sunday's are free admittance to museums in Paris. Wilma and I had a great time on the Batobus (a river boat that transports you to many of the sites all day along the Seine River. Unfortunately we did not get to see the Museum D' Orsay due to extremely long lines. No drawing or painting today it was our free day and art appreciation day.
After a lovely dinner that cost way too, much we're back to the hotel and our rooms view of the Eiffel Tower at night. Now to get a good nights sleep before our painting day and tour of Giverney tomorrow. (our last day in Paris and France).
The one thing I've learned on this trip to France with other media Plein Aire painters is that the still life artist in me and the vignette lover in me has much to practice in my landscape cp work to feel comfortable. I did stick to my guns and worked small the whole time 5 X 7 or 4 X 6. A few I've shown here or will how in the next few weeks to come. So stay tuned for more.
