Le pont de Langlois

oil on board 7"x5"
I painted this one for the Virtualpaintout.I rarely follow this challenge, because the difficulties I have to find and keep a subject on Goggle map, where I spend too much time. This month was  Arles, in S.O. of France.This place was made famous by Van Gogh, who painted the bridge. On my painting,the specific mecanism is not very visible, I didn't find the right angle to see it properly, and I wanted to have the water and the houses on my view...

  2. Sylviane, I am totally with you on the difficulty of the virtual paintout. I spend too much time on Google looking around and the angle of the picture never seems right! :) But I love your Pont de Langlois, the bright roofs and how the sky reflects on the water. Great job!

  4. This would be my...third attempt to leave a message. Each time it disappeared before I could type the required jumbled word.
    I was saying that I love this painting, Sylviane. I also had difficulties finding the spot on the Google map that I liked to paint. But Virtualpaintout is quite challenging, so I hope to find enough time to do one painting for that website...some day.
