Description

This is a cross between impressionism and realism in the transparent watercolor style with no use of body color/opaque paint. I wanted to show the town with glowing light set against the evening sky. From many trips over the years to France. Normandy is of course a well known destination for artist over the years. The famous Sainte-Catherine Church wooden spire balances the painting on the left and helps encourage the eye to then drift to the especially lighted area of the dock near the custom house. Bill has been painting and selling his artworks and prints for over 30 years and they are collected worldwide. You will see a wide variety of subjects and many locations around the world when looking through his galleries on this site many of which have been inspired by his travels. There are also a wide variety of products available in addition to the prints and therefore the painting that you like can be seen on many items. Hopefully you will enjoy looking through Bill’s artworks and since he is painting full time please visit his site regularly to see the latest additions.
