Heading for Viviers, a small walled city in the South of France. As my oil paints are not suitable for travel, I will continue with my charcoal and acrylic illustrations.

Paul Signac, who with Seurat, founded the pointillism style of painting, painted views of Viviers. While I certainly won’t be trying his technique, I will draw inspiration from his work
