Back from the market

Nita Leger Casey

Just another very country scene in France ,where the ladies go to the fresh market to get the vegetables and bread every morning ,this was a Spring day as you see the clematis flowers on the fence . I use to drive by this house all the time on my way to the village of Chabris .

Le grand village

"Le grand village " watercolor 6x8 (c)
Nita Leger Casey

I painted this watercolor on location few years ago , while I was visiting my mother who lived down the road from this farm , I could walk from their back garden and chat with the farmers while I was painting ,they were always concerned about her because she lived alone and she was approaching 100 at the time . French people always have nice gardens and they are very proud of them.
I miss not going there ,I was going there twice a year , I am due for a trip there soon ! I f you love France , this is a true French original painting painted on location . email me if you are interested

Chateau de Chenonceaux

10x10 oil on stretched canvas , copyrighted 2009

A very impressionistic style view of the Chateau , who is in the Sologne region of France , where I come from, I think I have said in a previous blog they are so many castles in France , growing up I took them for granted , but I must say , they are beautiful !
