Blue Surf, 7x5





Thank goodness this little girl didn't venture too far into those big waves. The water was unusually deep blue that day, and not too inviting for swimmers, but spectacular in its beauty.
Yesterday's post was a copy of Van Gogh's painting of the church at Auvers, and I was so pleased to receive the following comment:
 
"What a such pleasure to find lover of Van Gogh's artwork ! Beautiful tribute to him!
Hope to see you to Auvers-sur-Oise ;-)

The Tourist office of Auvers"

Wouldn't it be fun to go to France and tour the places Van Gogh painted and lived?
