Our View From Limoux

For ten lucky painters,"Our View from Limoux" was unforgettable.

Randy Blasquez’s first trip to France was filled with museums, Monet’s Gardens and art classes with one of her favorite teachers, Brigitte Curt.  

“I painted Monet’s gardens for a year after I returned home,” she confesses.  

On her second trip to France, last year, while in Burgundy taking art classes from another one of her favorite teachers, Ovanes Berberian, she determined that she would return the next year and teach a class of her own.  And she did!  The work resulting from that class in France will be on display in January in “Our View from The Limoux: Paint and Play in the South of France”

This painting will be available at a group show coming in January. I started this piece as a demo for my workshop "small to large" at Patris Studio earlier this year..and added a few final touches this week.
