Carres in Cannes


The 11x14 oil of the previous drawing.

From a book I am reading at the moment, Seek Treasures in Small Fields by Joan Puls:  "Sometimes the other or the strange is quite near us, even approaching us in people we think we know well, in situations we think we can handle, or in places we have come to take for granted.  We have looked at them so often that we now fail to see them.  We think we are experts in reading our reality only to miss the message beneath the mask."

The quote is so appropriate for this painting of patent leather peugeots lined up like penguins. Tres charmante, monsieur.
