A Painting A Week No 83


















For Sale - 11th May 2011  [SOLD]
La Baie, Nice
Size: 21 x 15cm
Price A$90
(Postage and handling included)

We spent a couple of nights in Nice recently and a friend had given me a brochure from the local tourist office which showed paintings of the area by famous artists. How exciting was that - standing in the actual spot (well, close anyway) where Matisse, Raoul Dufy and Picaso had stood to paint, and seeing that same view that they'd turned into masterpieces. This painting is a modest attempt from me to capture 'la baie des anges, Nice' - the Bay of Angels - the large sweeping bay which was a favourite to paint in the early 19th century.
