Print of the Week: Les Petits Gateaux Bakery - Melissa Colson

Print of the Week: Les Petits Gateaux Bakery

Painted in a loose, informal style with a touch of pen and ink to accentuate the details, the charm and je ne sais quoi of Paris shines through. I used vibrant pops of color to evoke a feeling of light and movement.

Print of the Week: Algodon Mansion

This week’s Print of the Week is one of my personal favorites. Some structures seem perfectly suited to be the subject matter for an architectural drawing, and Algodon Mansion certainly falls into this category.
