Italian and French Paintings
My Italian and French paintings were inspired following family holidays to the continent. I was interested in the architecture and unusual buildings to be found in some of the Italian and French towns and villages. I was particularly interested in features such as; balconies, shuttered windows, pan-tile roofs as well as the colours of the houses, which are always of interest to an artist. The cafe conversation series grew out of enjoying seeing people being able to relax in the open-air which is something our own Scottish climate prevents us from doing!
