Approaching La Guérite, Cannes

Elton john (resident nearby, has a roomy boat) rolled up to this beach club last year and dropped « ColdCold Heart » with Dua Lipa, shocking the lunch patrons. He did it again this summer on « Hold me closer » with Britney Spears.

La Guérite means prison, which is fitting as the adjacent prison is where Leo DeCaprio filmed Man in the Iron Mask. That’s all worth a watercolor I think.

Note; I began painting watercolors during lockdown, when a special friend gave me a set of Kai paints and I’ve painted nearly every day since. Recently someone else said they liked them because “it was like going to the south of France, for a moment”. We all need a little more of that, I think. These two people, basically my entire fan club, encouraged me to share with others. If you find the little faults like I do, just squint your eyes or look away.

Many of my watercolors are available, matted and framed, and shipped off by my son… in a store named, by coincidence, Miles Spencer Watercolor.
