Visiting France for the first time took my breath away. We travelled to England, took the Hovercraft/Seacat and entered France through Calais. Our European Explorer trip took us to ten countries returning to Paris before heading home.
The developed negatives with their neat little holes on either side of the film charmed me, and so decided to make these negatives into positive images of memorable places in France we visited and painted on a backdrop of France’s significant regions and departments
This watercolour was an intriguing challenge of capturing images of my trip into negative-sized images of places visited with text, scenes and symbols interspersed throughout the background.
