Seth's View of Paris

"Seth's View of Paris" (c)2005. Acrylic on canvas. My brother Seth took a trip to Europe in 2005. He told us that he was walking down a little side street in Paris and came across an interesting "backdoor" view of the Eiffel Tower. He snapped a wonderful photograph that I thought captured a nice little slice of Parisian architecture and foliage. His photo inspired me and I painted this for him for Christmas in 2005. Dedicated, of course, to my little brother...the world traveler. (I, myself, have never left the states.) Thanks for browsing my work.

I love this painting based on a photo of the Eiffel tower. Gives it an air of mystery.

Oh WOW Vanessa! I thought this WAS a photograph! Truely a beautiful and unique view! I love how you put in the architecture rather than just filling that area with trees. So very beautiful. My PIC of The Day! Also...your detail work in this is outstanding!
