Pour Stephane, félicitations et bonne chance pour le meilleur semaine de ta vie!
The famous Negresco hotel in Nice is the grandest hotel on the Cote d'Azur. Infamously in 1927 dancer & party animal Isadora Duncan died just outside when her scarf caught in the wheel of her sports car strangling her to death!
Nice has a magnificent Russian Cathedral, the largest of its kind outside Russia.

Thi is the first drawing I made when I got to Nice. The central parc Albert 1er is shaded by beautiful twisted trees & palms.
Rue Centrale in the Old Town, Nice. I swapped this drawing for a pair of new sunglasses!
This is fantastic! I hope those sunglasses are really good.
ReplyDeleteI love those fingerprints.
ReplyDeleteJust a thought. Don't you think that the sun of the midi is blunting your wonderfully sardonic sense of humour and turninig you into a BLOGGER?
ReplyDeleteAll the best.

Some really nice studies here. I like the way you capture the town. Feels like an honest representation.
ReplyDeleteWhoever got the sketch of the street scene for the price of a pair of sunglasses did well out of the deal! Nice work...
