House Behind the Park Wall, Viens

An arbor provides some protection from late afternoon sun, and privacy from the village's boules players.

Archway, Viens

Viens is a hilltop village, a medieval maze of winding, narrow lanes where I could spend months painting the shape of shadows.

Six Plums and a Nectarine

All from the Sunday market at L'Isle Sur La Sorgue.

Storm over Luberon Valley

Looking out this afternoon from the studio window at Les Bassac as a thunderstorm moved over the mountains--just like rain clouds roll over the Worcester Range towards my studio at home in Vermont.

Looking Down from Joucas

This Provence landscape is unique: a patchwork of vineyards, orchards, lavender fields and wheat tracts, pinned by cyprus trees and stitched together by hedges and lanes.

At the Top of Bonnieux

A long climb up, then through the stone doorway into cool quiet.
