The four pictures (plus one in the scrapbook) of the boulangerie are experiments for a drawing I would love to do based on 's Lacoste Boulengerie Redux The original photo is quite dramatic, but I thought I would try for something different. Been working on this about a week, made lots and lots of sketches and color tests, and am finding it quite difficult and probably beyond my skills. Still, I got a very nice comment from and feel encouraged to keep trying.

If you like beautiful scenery, especially of France and Italy, take a look at Tim's work at his gallery. [link]

For some more beautiful scenery, the pen & ink both realistic & fantasy kind, go to John Morrissey's gallery [link]

When I originally wrote this, I described John Morrissey's sceneries as "For more beautiful scenery..." I did NOT mean to make it sound like they are more beautiful than Tim's. I just meant if anyone wanted to see some more scenery that was also beautiful to check out another link. I changed that to read "For some more beautiful scenery..." Very sorry about any mixed messages.
