Beynac- final (or close to it)

26 06 2009

Back from our mini-vacation in Hatteras now, and I’ve finally taken the Beynac painting off of the easel to work on other things. After I’ve given it a little rest, I’ll probably do a a bit more to the water and one or two other small adjustments before I upload it to my website. But it’s more or less “done” so this will be my final “WIP” post for this painting. (Note: adjustments made, painting is done! Click here to see the final “final”!)

This painting shows my view prior to hiking up to the top of the village to tour the château at the summit. The village of Beynac would be worth a visit just because it is so storybook pretty. But it is also the home of a magnificently preserved 13th century castle where Richard the Lionheart met his death! From the top of the Château de Beynac one can see out over the beautiful Dordogne valley in all directions.  The day I paid a visit to Beynac is definitely one of my favorite and memories of my visit to this most beautiful part of France.

Spectacular! Wonderful place and great painting! I wish I could see it in person, it would knock my socks off.

Thanks y’all. I appreciate it. This is a scene I will probably revisit again with another painting at some point (variation on the theme.)
