Thursday on the terraces: La Petite Hostellerie (1902) on Rue de la Harpe, morning capture, glowing bulbs, hearty fondue/raclette menus and a frontage that screams 'trying too hard' with the chalkboards & deals. Midday Latin Quarter energy in the 5e!

Best $5 I’ve spent at the record store in while. Took a chance on this British pop/reggae/folk rock band I’ve never heard of upon reading the lyrics “What’s keeping the White House white / is it chalk, is it fog, is it fear?” Glad I snagged it!

In my experience, everything I #write inspires and informs everything I write. When I travel I take journals, copious notes in coffee shops in #Seattle or #paris #LatinQuarter that sort of thing, and I use later on. when I write #poetry, it informs the lyrical tone in my #writing, and so on.
A bustling Paris arcade on the Left Bank complete with glass ceiling. Shops and bars line the streets on both sides.
A busy Paris arcade in the Latin Quarter today.

#80sTop30 (xxi) ‘America For Beginners’ #LatinQuarter. This has all the tension of a classic black & white film; there’s a strong narrative but so much room for one’s imagination in the pauses too. The chorus is beautifully hushed. m.youtube.com/watch?v=HXWy...
Our #Paris #hotel was #HôteldesGrandesEcoles in the #LatinQuarter. It was like an oasis in the middle of the city. Surprisingly affordable, with a good breakfast. Staffed 24/7 by friendly, helpful people. Plenty of restaurants within easy walking distance. Near #Pantheon, #NotreDame, #ClunyMuseum 🌺

Initial Pencil sketch, starting to ink the lines.
Fully inked. Color added on the left side of the street, the sky, and some underpainting on the street.
Whole scene has been colored, but street still needs more darkening. Overhead lights have started to be illuminated.
The final scene. The last step that brought it all together was a classic "happy accident". I spritzer the street area with some water to wet on wet some more shading into the street but was ghastly at how much the other foreground elements, including all the people, started to run and bleed. I thought I'd ruined it, but I set out to minimize the damage, clean it up, and in the end, found that the softening that step provided really made the whole thing work so much better than it had before! I'm not sure if could replicate that technique again if I tried, but I'm so happy with how it turned out on this piece.
Process shots of probably my best piece to date, Twilight on High Street at the Holidays, from a photo I took on my last trip to Galway. Check out the alt text on the last one for a description of the final step!

Watercolor and ink painting depicting a street scene looking west down High Street in Galway, Ireland. Holiday lights twinkle overhead while the sun sets on the horizon. On the street, people mill about. A small child seems curious about a Musician with a banjo case, as her mother hurries her along.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1968, French police broke through Paris's #May68 barricades in the #LatinQuarter. The extreme brutality they demonstrated increased anger in the country, and the protests spread. The state and the #police are never on the side of the people or of justice.
