Its all about the details

Two weeks almost over! I can't believe it. France has has so much more to see than what I had time to throughout my stay. Since I began my painting class I have had trouble finding time to post as the course has had us visiting sites all over Paris. The class is a small group fo 15 and we have spent time discovering the details of many Parisian neighborhoods. I couldn't help but feel a bit like Renoir or Van Gogh as we looked in depth as some of the following beauties...
Another view of Notre Dame, this time looking up from down by the Seine

Louvois fountain

Trying my best to draw the difficult sculpture!
Pont de Arts
Louvre


Place Saint-Sulpice
Getting a lesson in how to paint water
The workshop provided a great opportunity to to work on my drawing and painting skills but more importantly spend some time paying attention to all of the intricacies of design throughout Paris. I am already trying to figure out how I can manage to buy a set of camping stools like we used in class to take my students out and do a similar workshop.
