Mon Rêve

I belong in Paris.

When my daughter and I went to Paris the past April, for the first time in my life, I felt at home. I felt that I was finally where I belonged. I was where I was meant to be. I cannot stop thinking about going back. Going back and never leaving. I dream of Paris. Both my home and office desks are Paris themed. I HAVE to go back.

Naturally, it was only a matter of time before this was going to come out in my art. This painting did not start out as a Paris theme. It was just color that I added using a pallet knife, after a LOT of messing around, I felt compelled to add the Eiffel Tower. I will say, it was VERY difficult for me to NOT going into tedious detail with the tower. I wanted to stay in the “abstract” or “impressionist” feel. Hopefully I was successful.

It only makes me want to go back even more.
