casual and classic

(It's also the one place in Paris where I've bumped into a certain beloved cookbook author and her darling husband

rather than being inspired by sketches that returned home with me

But the prettiest are in the bouquet you brought home with you, that keep you company while you sketch away on a rainy day. Original watercolor on Arches paper 5x7 inches
