Love Is In the Air!

"L'Auberge Chez Francois" is the third painting of this Great Falls restaurant I've created. L'Auberge Chez Francois is rated as one of the most romantic restaurants in the DC area, and I agree! I still need to sign it ... but I think it's done. Enjoy your Valentine's Day!

New in My Restaurant Series

As promised, here are two new pieces in my restaurant series that I've been working on. Both are getting finishing touches and I photographed them at just the wrong time -- when some of the paint is sopping wet and some of the painting is dry. So, these are ... and will be ... better looking than you can tell here.
