"MY DEARS"
Jacques Fontan
Knife Oil - 16 Inches x 12 Inches

Walking in the Region of Royan.
Meschers is a village on the edge of the Gironde estuary.
From here one is on one side, the Verdon left and the tip of St-Georges de Didone right, the water of the Atlantic sometimes pushed by the rising tide resists water brought by the Garonne Dordogne.
These currents effects highlight the estuary often flat surface. Add sunlight to that of chalk cliffs ... you have what I have tried to deal here with the knife.
I offered this painting to friends who have left us.
