Sunset over the Luberons, Provence
Thinking of seasons and the landscape: my first visit to Les Bassacs was on an autumn day, and this vista was hidden behind a curtain of fog. What a wonderful surprise to see it revealed when I returned to paint there the next summer.

One of my favorite places on God's green earth!
Thanks for sharing this beautiful work. (can you tell I need a vacation?) :)
What a wonderful landscape!
such rich color!
Nice blog and beautiful work. I have painted in the south of France as well. All the best!
Thanks for writing, Debbi, Yasemin, Teresa and Frank! Painting a sunset (or sunrise, which i haven't done very often) is always nerve-wracking, though exciting--especially with that valley spread out below. That's the view from Les Bassacs, a hamlet in the middle of the Luberons.
The colors in the watercolor are so clean and vibrant.
Thank you, Carol! That's my goal--sometimes an elusive one--in watercolor.
