Paris is legendary as a city of romance, and to me this images captures that sense. We were strolling on the banks of the Seine at dusk, having just taken an evening boat ride and watched couples dancing to music under the lights outside a cafe. The weather was warm, the sky was dramatic, and while the shadows deepened and stretched before us, the moonlight gave the river a beautiful glow. Everything looked soft and romantic. This is Paris at her best.
This painting sold before I even had a chance to post it to the website. But I thought I'd share it here on the blog. "Moonlight on the Seine" 15 x 22 Collection of James and Margaret Leight California

I used to love the moonlight, but that is when I was still together with my ex-girlfriend. She and I used to date around night, it was mostly because of our work schedules. Well, going back, it was not really the best time to date, but it was something that I always looked forward to. The moonlight was the only thing that illuminated us. I really hate that we had to break up so suddenly, I am a wreck ever since.
