To Paris With Love, 7x5 Mixed Media

I began this work with the stamp of French handwriting. This is all acrylic, with the exception of the flower and leaves, which I painted in oil. I like anything that reminds me of Paris. It's just romantic. A person could say, "Take out the garbage" in French and it would sound romantic.

Paris Crosswalk, 7x5

I looked down from my hotel window in Paris and saw these businessmen, briskly walking across the street. They presented a challenge in foreshortening, but I really like the point of view. I'm wondering what the guy on the left has in his backpack. Workout clothes? Lunch? Work papers? I'd like to think it's a bottle of wine, a hunk of bread, and some delicious French cheese.
