Postcard from Etretat

 

"Postcard from Etretat"
5x7inches, oil on canvas

Another of my recent projects, was contributing to this year's PAE charity event. The "Postcard Art Exhibit" took place in Scheveningen last weekend. This time they were raising funds for an art program that helps people with Alzheimer's. Read more about their project here: https://www.postcardartexhibit.com/

My plan was to post a link to the postcard I contributed to promote sales. But, looks like it was already sold on opening night. That's always nice to see. You can still buy cards from other artists at their on-line shop at the above link.

My painting was inspired by an antique black and white postcard of Etretat. I imagined a sort of Monet color scheme to bring this one to life:

 
Meanwhile, I made a second submission, also based on an antique postcard (but from Saint Malo). This was just in case the first painting got lost in the mail. I read they keep additional contributions for future use, so this one will not be in the 2026 catalog:
