A Parade in Paris

This oil painting is my newest. I finished it in January, right before I left for Guatemala. I absolutely love it! This is my new favorite style of painting. I love way the people looks so whimsical and the street is airy and happy and it's in my favorite colors!

I have a new scene that is similar to this but involves a street cafe in Paris that I will be starting as soon as I find the time. I'm not sure if I will do it in acrylics or oils. It will be by special request for a friend.

Who knew Paris could be so pretty on canvas? I've been there and didn't find the city all that beautiful. Dirty, yes but beautiful? Nope.
