Once in while I paint a picture that I like, but am not quite satisfied with. Oh, and sometimes I paint a picture that I am definitely not satisfied with and will never be. But, back to the subject. I loved the subject and composition of this painting, but I felt the colors were too "sweet". So I whipped out my trusty non-sweet colors and made some changes. Ah, much better.
This is obviously painted from a photo, since I have not lately journeyed to France. However, I was there about 15 years ago and have saved this photo, among many others from that trip.

As you know, I loved the composition of the original of this and tried to do it in watercolor--but felt it was too bland. Think I will try it again in these warmer colors--love it and the one above! Thanks for the sweet note.
