The yellow building with the clock tower used to be the old town hall in Le Cannet and now, it is being used as an art centre. I have the great pleasure to go in there on a regular basis to do some painting and I just enjoy the walk in this very traditional old part of Le Cannet, North of Cannes.
I have started a series of watercolour paintings this Summer about the small village of Le Cannet North of Cannes. I go there on a regular basis and enjoy very much working with a theme.
