Hi, fans and best friends!
As this shelter in place continues, I continue to plug away at my epic spy-meets-modern-art project, A Brush with Peril. This week I’m completing the final chase sequence – with a vespa scooter and Rousseau’s Football Players packed into an NSU Prinz like a clown car. These images below are after Camille Pissarro’s street scenes:
Here, they’re tearing over Monet’s Le pont de bois (1872), National Gallery of Canada, Ottowa, Ontario.
I’m hoping to finish this chase scene this week, and then all that’s left to complete this project is an epilogue! I feel like I’m getting so close! I’ve been working on it – off-and-on – for over ten years, and it’s gonna be 250+ pages!
OK, onto rewards for YOU KIND PATRONS!
