France

A collection of sketches, drawings, and watercolors from France.

painting monet

In France, I followed in the footsteps of the Impressionists. Here, I was inspired by Monet to paint these water lilies by the roadside.

In Arles, I painted in the same places where Vincent van Gogh once painted, including the landscapes around Montmajour Abbey that inspired his ink drawings. 

painting van gogh 3

Inspired by the olive trees that Vincent van Gogh once painted while recovering at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence.

I painted my own watercolor version of The Starry Night Over the Rhône at the very spot where Vincent van Gogh painted it—and also at night.

painting cezanne

I followed Cézanne’s route along the historic D10 road, which he traveled so many times to paint Mont Sainte-Victoire.
