French Aloe

Unknown Monday, January 4, 2010
I was once told by an artist that paintings that are predominately green don't sell. That may or may not be true but I sure love 'em. This started out as a study for a larger oil painting but I've spent so much time painting it, I'm no longer considering it a 'study'.

The reference photo for this was taken in Eze, a medieval village in the south of France. Of course, I'm sure the plant is the same as an Aloe in the U.S. but it seems much more exotic since it's been 'imported', n'est-ce pas?
