acrylic on board 7,5X9,5
I painted this seascape for the Following the Masters third challenge.
It is after Le golfe de Marseille vu de l'Estaque by Cézanne, about 1885, in the post-impressionnist period.The original can be seen at New York City, at the Metropolitan Museum.
I like Cézanne's painting, which shows us the Provence's light and the stone's heat with the ochers and blues. At l'Estaque he said"I want to make the perspective by color alone".
I enjoyed working on it, maybe I should have gone on ,but there was the deadline!
Many thanks for stopping by my blog.

I was at the Met in NYC just last Sunday, I think you are doing a wonderful job following the masters! Stay well and stay in touch! and yes, you can write to me in French! I don't know if I can answer to you in French as well, but I have no problem reading it!!
Great choice! Love Cezanne and your rendition is so well done.
