Célébrons la France!


Today is her day!



To celebrate, here are some charming paintings of Provence. I find these paintings by Provence artist Christian Guinet a little breath of fresh air! He is clearly passionate about the region, and the naive style is reminiscent of the tourist paintings of the 1950's, although he is a contemporary artist. Their offhanded charm works well in a retro-chic setting.
