Antibes Green
If you want to know how to say like a real frenchie then listen to this - http://www.forvo.com/word/antibes
Early 20th century art is where I constantly return to for sustenance
Antibes is one of the towns between Nice and Cannes in the French Riviera . Now there are billionaires yachts moored in the harbour but it still retains a certain magic and when I visited there a few years ago I cried when I had to leave. ....
The light is incredible...... colours do seem to glow and shimmer
Two paintings by Raoul Dufy
No wonder Antibes was favoured by so many really famous artists in the late 19th & early 20th century.
Picasso, Matisse, Renoir, Bonnard, Derain, and many others worked and lived there. This is what made me want to call my brilliant green Antibes.

ReplyDeleteAntibes is a truly magical place I think, I love it also. And remembering back to when I was there this zinging green was one of the impressions I kept. So glad to have found your paint version! Minerva ~
