EDM # 241 From my kitchen window..


La vue de ma fenêtre de cuisine n'a rien d'esthétique: le mur du cimetière derrière un parking... mais il y a ce superbe noyer , très vieux, imposant et classé: une merveille de tous les jours!
My kitchen looks onto the street; a parking lot and,and behind, the cemetery wall...- not really nice or interesting - but there is this huge, old and impressive walnut tree: an everyday beauty !

  1. This is fantastic! I really like the walnut tree, and the flowers(I believer they're yours) and they are beautiful! But this one is clearly very European as you could tell from the car parked there.. it's not a full size SUV or a Pick-up ;)

  2. You must love watching that tree go through the seasonal changes. Lovely painting. I have a beautiful church stained glass window across an alley from my kitchen window in Manhattan, but it is boarded up while brick repairs are being done this month :(

  3. What a lovely sketch. When I clicked on the image to get an enlarged view, I was so impressed by the way you had sketched 'your' tree.

  9. I always learn from your handling of imagery - I very much like your wonderful walnut tree branching and leafing, and your window box colors and definition compliments all.
