And this first one is just so lovely to look at...the painting style, colors, composition. I'm looking forward to seeing the progression of the rest of the murals. Congratulations, Pascal!<br /><br />Cletascooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06560121099807858945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-48575467800066507672013-07-05T10:15:00.264-07:002013-07-05T10:15:00.264-07:00Thank you for your comments my friends.

This is precisely what I wanted, telling a story, making it look strong and important.<br />I also wanted the colors ,and the map in the background in particular, to be reminiscent of old school books. The whole point of the program is first of all to attract people to the village and boost local economy but also to tell people about french history, this thing that we used to learn very traditionnally through the chronology of french monarchs. It might not be the best way to understand history but it is better than knowing nothing about it!PA74https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342796008081342481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-13652291228389316512013-06-30T13:31:19.214-07:002013-06-30T13:31:19.214-07:00I remember when you were just beginning sketches f...I remember when you were just beginning sketches for this. I love the way you handled color, the pops of red and green of the map. It reminds me of old history book illustrations and you now can tell a larger story with the other 11 murals!
