"Eiffel Tower"6" x 6", Oil on canvas panel.
Sold.
After flying 12 hours to Paris, we checked in to our hotel and went directly to the Eiffel tower to take a four hour bike tour of the city. It was wonderful, and served as a great way to deal with jet lag and no sleep! Our guide explained to us that there was a competition to determine the design for what eventually became the Eiffel Tower. Would you believe second place was a guillotine? Now that would have been a weird Paris landmark!
I am finally back at my easel after spending the last week getting organized. Sorry to be gone so long!

Fantastic, Leslie! I'm so accustomed to seeing your Nautical paintings but I love the lines and composition of this. You truly can paint anything! Hope your having a great visit.
Love the color, love the design, love everything about this painting. Did I mention I also live in Paris?
Kentucky. Somehow it doesn't look the same as your painting...
I love the way you made an iconic landmark uniquely your own. Nice job!
Wow this is really gorgeous. Just love it!
