Paris in Oils

I collect a lot of paintings of places I love, and this is one
of them. It is an oil painting of a cafe in Paris. It is just a
print, but I love it. I wish I could paint like this. I have
tried to paint in oils, but my watercolor background doesn't
really let me. The techniques are so different, I am just not
any good at oils. Maybe I will try some more someday...it
is never too late to learn something new.
Speaking of learning something new, I attended a marriage
seminar today with Mike and Amy Smalley. It is being
held at our church, and they are staying with us in our guesthouse.
There was a lot of good advice about communication, respect,
and acceptance. good stuff...
