A Testy Rendezvous in France - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina


 Rendezvous Red Geraniums
by Nancy Medina
12X16
Oil on Archival Panel

Sold

Class Demonstration
We visited the most beautiful village in Southern France yesterday, St. Cirq le Popie, with rolling hills and endless tile-roofed vistas and tons of gourmet gelato shops. While the views and shopping were magnifique, there was one little fly in the ointment, an occurrence that showed that all was not perfect in this little bit of heaven on earth. I've shared the story with you on my art blog, in photos. Please know that none of the French kitties or pups were harmed or injured at all in any way shape or form in this true life dramatization. Bonjour flower friends, and tomorrow we travel to Cahors, another river valley medieval village. I will save a creme brulee gelato for you!
