Back from a bunch of travels and starting to synthesize all I’ve seen. Interesting that the impression to emerge first as an abstract painting is the kitchen aromas I enjoyed in the back alleys of Cassis. I have a whole sound series of paintings, but this is the first smell I’ve tried to paint.

This painting is 20″x26″ and done in thick pastel. You can see the whole work above and close up details of it below.

Do you get a sense of being there and smelling that?
