Lost Art #33: Place Lucien Herr, Paris

Hey everyone! 

How did it get to be summer already? I've spent most of this spring working on a big portrait commission, so I haven't had the chance to get out and lose as much art in the streets as I would like. But it has been beautiful painting weather! So I'm excited that this week I finally found a moment to get back to work on my favorite project :). I decided to visit a favorite 'stop and think' spot of mine. I've spent many quiet moments in this small park, and had some profound thoughts here. So it's a very special place for me. I hope I have managed to impart some of my fondness for this place onto the bar stool seat that I found in the street not long ago. And hopefully it will find a good home! If you know anybody in the neighborhood, share this post and see if one of them finds it. More to come soon!



This painting, acrylic on found stool seat, 32.5cm x 32.5cm, was left on the Place Lucien Herr, in Paris, France on June 17th, 2016, at 4:30 pm.

Lost Art #1: Place de l'Estrapade, Paris

Today's the day! The Lost Art project has officially begun. It was more difficult than I expected, leaving this first painting out on the streets. It started to rain as I walked away. But this is the challenge I signed up for. I look forward to seeing what happens next!



This painting, oil on found wood, 29cm x 23.5cm, 
was left at the Place de l'Estrapade in Paris on May 11, 2014 at 3:40pm.
