The above painting is plein-air, painted on location, on the spot

 

looking down from the steep scape slope, buzzards flying up on the thermals…

Limeuil is the name of the town build on the hill at the confluence of the Dordogne & Vezérè.
I was ‘artist in residence’ in the beautiful parc panoramorique during
summer 2005. Here’s few of the images of that lovely long hot blue summer 🙂
