The Paris Flea Market inspired this painting. This lovely Asian woman was strolling through the Marche au Puce while the mid morning sun created strong shadows and pools of light.
I adore capturing movement through market and cafe scenes, and this is the second of a pair. The first has found a wonderful home.
This painting is an oil on stretched canvas, 36" x 24". It is currently framed and hanging in my guest bedroom in good company with four charcoal portraits my father created in the forties; Bette Davis, Judy Garland, Hedde Lamar, the fourth - still trying to identify. Two Doris "Dayesque " chairs (reminders of those Pillow Talk movies) have found a home in this space also and I see a little Hollywood theme happening.
Hope my house guests will enjoy their new digs!
