I am lagging behind. Far too busy in the office. Another drawing/painting in Jaunes. Acrylic and charcoal.

France: Any Martin Rieux

 

Painting week in France, under the guidance of Annemiek Jongen. We had a great group of 6 participants, fine lodging and superb French food. The weather wasn't so cooperative, it was quite cold for June, but we had a great time nontheless. 

Here is a study on bamboo paper 50x70cm, made with charcoal and acrylics, of an old farm in the little village of Jeantes.

Some loose sketches from the village of Esna. There were lots of old and colourful doors.

And a guy who was working on raw cotton, he was whipping it with some thread. I thought he was playing an instrument, but it was to cut cotton into threads.
