Renoir said: "Black and white are  not colors." Even today, many art schools frown upon the use of black.Yet black has existed in paintings since Altamira and Lascaux, to contemporary work. Near the end of his life, Renoir admitted: "It took me forty years to discover that the queen of all colors is black." Better late than never..I say.

Fuente de Carinena, Espana

Fuente de Carinena, Espana. watercolor, 6x4 in. =15x10 cm. Available: $ 60 US = 40 Euros. Painted on location, sitting outside at a bar with my friend Mireille drinking a lemonade, while some guys inside the bar watching us, sent us word with the waitress that they were inviting us to a glass of wine. To know if we accepted or not, you'll have to buy the painting! This is THE FAMOUS FOUNTAIN, which normally carries water, but for the Fiesta de la Vendimia in Carinena, every year, and this coming weekend, it will be flowing with wine.
