Through Gene, my amazing contact in New Orleans, I was granted access to work in a number of amazing interiors; the Degas House, Antoine's, the Column's Hotel... here is four hours inside the Napoleon House in the French Quarter. I knew at this point in the trip that I was not going to be able to "finish" a piece at every location I could paint, but the joy is always in being there and capturing the composition and color from life in an attempt to record a feeling and a place. A few generations of the owners and employees of the restaurant are on display in person and as paintings from the past on the walls. work in progress, I'm going to try for Menzel and Manet, oil on canvas, 18 by 28

Good work Alex, you say well how important it is able to express what one feels at the time. If you love those who view the painting, the artist transmits it and enjoy watching the picture, although the artist suffers in doing their work.
I hope the translator is as close as possible to what I want to express yourself.
Regards
