"Rencontrer Des Cafés" oil on board 10x 16

I called it "Rencontrer Des Cafés" which  translates as
 "Cafe Encounter" ,
and this is another painting challenge from "Day not wasted" site.
The number of pieces I painted today  is 4. The number of pieces I'm happy with is 2 . And it's alright .
Painting maraphones give me deeper understanding of techniques, materials and style.
I definitely found my "surface" - it's linen, only linen.
Painting on linen with "Rosemary and Co" brushes and Da Vinci oil is a pure joy!!!
 This piece is for sale - $ 500.00
Free shipping

  1. Looks great! Once you try Linen it's hard to go back. Is it oil primed? That is the best!
