Eiffel III

Pin It
"Eiffel III"
Oil, 6" x 6" on canvas panel.
Sold.

I painted a painting similar to this one a few months back and had a request to paint another one similar to it for a Christmas gift. I changed the colors and the format a bit and I like this one just as much as the first one!
Thanks for so many wonderful comments about my story on my blog post from yesterday. Isn't it wonderful in life when miracles happen?

Eiffel Tower II

Pin It
Eiffel Tower II
8" x 6", Oil on canvas panel.
$200.00

I wanted to give the Eiffel another try so I used this slightly different vantage point. Gotta love those greens! And I swear, the water really did look this green!
Don't forget that I will donate 50% of all proceeds for any paintings sold this month to the Avon Breast Cancer Fund. The Avon walk is this Saturday. It is 26 miles but it shouldn't be too bad. I am on a great team of wonderful women, Speedo For the Cure, and so far our team has raised almost $60,000! Yippee!

Eiffel Tower

Pin It
"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!
