Paris in the Spring

As most of you know, I take my group on a special
trip every year. We are going to Paris late in April.
In the meantime, I am doing some small paintings
and postcards of Paris to sell during and after the
trip. I am using some photos that I took the last time
I was there, about 8 years ago.
This is Notre Dame of course. When I saw it for the
first time, I wept. I had studied it all of my life, and
taught about it for years in Art History classes, and I
was overwhelmed when I finally stood in front of so
much history, so much devotion, such beauty...
I may have the same reaction this time...I hope so.
