Paris Café LI (Montmartre)

Paris Café was the series of mostly small works depicting different cafés in the city of Paris.  I started it in 2009 and, after making 50 paintings, I announced the end of the series.

I am happy to say most of the 50 paintings found a new home and that I still hear from visitors to my website that they continue enjoying viewing the images of those paintings.  In fact, after the announcement, I myself couldn't stop painting scenes involving Parisian cafés, bistros, bars and restaurants, and occasionally showed them here on my blog (see my Paris, France category).

Without doubt, sidewalk cafés are among those that symbolize Paris, and I must say they do so in a very intimate way.  As someone who loves the city, I have decided to bring back the Paris Café series.  Through my new café paintings, I look forward to conveying flavors of various cafés.  I also hope to depict the distinctive atmosphere of different neighborhoods so we can actually feel like getting around Paris.
