Experience
I have trained with local and national artists, have been painting for about 6 years. Having lived for twenty years in Provence, France, I like to do watercolor paintings of villages and towns in Mediterranean France and Italy. I am a professional French cook and enjoy painting pictures related to food and cooking. I also love painting glass and water, even an occasional tree or flower.
All of this work is for sale; just send me an email if you like something.
The prints are printed on the highest quality digital watercolor paper: they look like the originals, because I use the same kind of rough surfaced paper.
The large giclee prints are printed on digital watercolor paper specially ordered from France. The paper is archival, the ink is guaranteed to not fade. I have these done by a professional printer, who works only with artists and paintings.
Shipping is calculated according to where items are to be shipped.
