I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Italy and France. After we left Tuscany and Provence, we enjoyed a short visit with our friends, Jacqueline and Michel, in their lovely home near Toulouse. This painting is a portrait of their home. The media is pen and watercolor wash. The home is in a very beautiful setting with hundreds of evergreen trees. The contrast between the white house and the dark green trees is lovely. The home suddenly emerges from the parkland setting at the end of the long driveway. The terra cotta tile roof is a nice complement to the beautiful lawn and dark green trees. I really enjoy painting portraits of beautiful homes!
