RURAL LIFE IN FRANCE

RURAL LIFE IN FRANCE

France is an amazing country, romantic and beautiful.  
In the Lot Region, the hills roll and twist as they follow river valleys. 
 Honestly, everywhere you look, is a scene worthy of painting.  
During our artists' 10 day retreat with DreamaTollePerry (not a workshop), 
we took in as much as we possibly could.  
Except for two days, we visited quaint villages near our home 
base in tiny Frayssinet, 
a village of fewer than 300 souls. 
I painted everyday, either watercolor postcards or in my watercolor journal
 or a larger oil painting. 
"Rural Life in France" was a hike of about 1/2 mile from the artist compound.  My load was heavy, carrying paints, easel, and all other necessary equipment.  I didn't tire; the anticipation was great. 

 I have so much more to share!
