Aromas Noosa Ed. 12 of 50

I was inspired to create this artwork for my love of the French cafe scene with Aromas Noosa having an ambience similar to the beautiful Parisian cafes. Early morning sunshine on this inviting corner provides dappled light throughout the day as well as soft mood lighting from the chandelier inside. This cafe, shadowed by old poinciana trees has been a consistent place for morning beach walkers and tourists .

Print Size including Mount 51cm x 41cm

Using pen and watercolour on Archers hot pressed paper I created this painting for an exhibition.
