This piece is painted on the streets of Paris' Île Saint Louis -- my home base for the 2025 trip. I loved hanging out on this little island and all of Paris.

I was a little nervous setting up where I did ... in front of a second hand luxury shop which was supposed to be open that afternoon. No shopkeeper came -- but I was prepared to pack up if needed and made sure not to block the window display. Even tried to help potential patrons pointing out other locations.

What I loved about my spot was that a glass window framed in red was between me and the café patrons. It actually framed the perfect composition (although I strayed from that a bit). Plus, even though I was physically close to the diners, they felt comfortable to carry on their regular conversations. I met the waiter depicted who came by before he'd been painted in. He had to be part of this painting -- no doubt.

You can see a short video of the painting and my view on my Instagram and Facebook posts from July 26, 2025. Hope you'll check it out.
