Cheese
Cheese
12x12cm oil on canvas
on the table cloth is written cheese in several languages. This is a Brebis and though I bought it for the Thanksgiving dinner we attended I ended up eating most of it and had to buy more. It was absolutely delicious, smelled heavenly and reminded me of Tuscany.
And this is the next big painting of NY that I am working on...
I like the graffiti or street art, as they call it here, on the walls of the buildings on the left. Street Art is big in Paris, so are graphic novels. The taggers climb high on the rooftops to spray their dropies, I wonder if they do it upside down. It's kind of like foxes shitting in the woods, they choose the highest rocks so that their scent will be more olfactible.

You made my day
From a blog reader and collectioner i got this email the other day. It was so nice to receive these photos in this somber month of November.
Hi Angie,
What a gorgeous kitchen I think they look great, exactly how they are hung. I remember meeting the lovely people that bought these from my 100%100 gourmandises expo back in 2010. What a fun lunch we had.
Thanks for making my day!

The Bastille GMAC
The GMAC at the Bastille is an exhausting event; five days of chatting with thousands of people.
We had a black out and celebrated our sales every evening with champagne.
Five galleries approached me, one for the third time. I met several other artists, several who have studios at the Fabrique des Artistes in Ivry, where I work.
Any artist that wants to show in France has to do this salon. I don't think I'll do it again, at least not for a couple of years, I'm totally burned out.
Check out GAB . He's amazing.
I also met, Giovanni Manzo from Naples. I love his oils, I saw them a few years ago and was happy to talk with him.
Here is MIROGI's awesome Sumo bronze that I fell in love with so took home.
