I love painting outdoor markets (click here to see some of my market paintings).  They are lively, inviting and fun.  There are lots of different colors, shapes, smells and tastes that are so tempting to try, or at least try to interpret, in a painting.

But what I like most about markets is people who gather there.  Each interaction between vendors, shoppers, neighbors, friends, or even strangers is just like a vignette from a movie, and that is intriguing to watch or participate in.  That is also what attracts me to depict in my market paintings - something that almost never happens in a superstore with self checkouts.

The market in this painting is held in Campo de' Fiori, in Rome, Italy.
