I painted this view two days in a row, a Sunday and a Monday (this painting), and the scenes on the two days could not have been more different. The Monday was as quiet as the Sunday was buzzy. Still, bathers walked by, and I quickly grabbed them in paint, as I love placing figures in my work (especially when they make the view itself, in life, so much more interesting. From my shady spot off to the side, I couldn’t have been happier.

This painting is part of Summer in le Sud (“luh sood”, a French word meaning “the south of France”), a series of paintings and watercolors made en plein air (outside, from life) as an artist-in-residence with the Leo Marchutz School.

Original oil painting on canvas. Painting size 14”x22”; overall size framed is approx 15”x23”. This is a diptych of two 11”x14” canvases framed together as one; they were painted together as if one canvas and are meant to stay together, not separated. This painting comes framed in a natural oak floating frame and is ready to hang.
