You have absolutely captured a French street at night!! I was in Dijon this summer, and this was what I saw from my window. Great work, Bill
Randy Burns
Bill, this is so much like a place I dreamed about the other night. No kidding. Dramatic here with the darks and lights. Wonderful. F/L.

It goes like that,Bill...historical truth......no cure for ennui, just wait. Better not to paint than be empty illustrator. Don't fret. Don't sweat. Go fishing !!!! Falling in love helps,lol, for some.....sigh........

So interesting to look back at this from 2013, Bill...........still fascinating, still 'you', but subtle differences show and that's the beauty of working full time at Art........change and growth are inherent in the times between one's works. I will always love this one, Bill.......it has so much nostalgia so personal built in !! Still so beautiful !.........f.v............VIVA

Viva -- thanks for all that! I've stopped painting. Then, after three weeks, I've decided to start again -- have three unfinished canvases --still waiting for the enthusiasm to kick in.
