Beautiful and Fragile


A painting mostly done at the top end of a short street, Rue Sainte-Claire, in old town Nice.  I touched it up slightly in the studio.  On sunny days, the buildings at the bottom of the street always have on display the shadows of other buildings.  It's a spot for standing still in contemplation.  12x9 oil on linen.

My heart goes out to all the people of Nice and elsewhere who are dealing with the virus calamity.  Painting reminds us how beautiful and fragile is our world, and that we need to look out for each other.
