Restaurant Le Consulat in Paris | Acrylic Painting Handmade

For a close-up of this painting click on the picture.
This work called "Restaurant Le Consulat in Paris" is a colorful and atmospheric street scene of Paris.
The restaurant Le Consulat is a historic cafe that was formerly visited by famous artists such as Picasso, Sisley, Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Monet.
The restaurant is located in the creative and colourful district of Montmartre in the Rue Norvins street and about 15 minutes' walk from the Sacré-Cœur.
The painting is painted from a photo image that I shot (over 12 years ago) around the blue hour in the evening. The atmospheric light of the restaurant and street lighting provided a beautiful color palette that I have painted in my own expressionist style with acrylic paint on canvas.
The original painting hangs at my house and has a size of 90x70cm.

WatercolorWall is a studio where hand-painted watercolors are made. The person behind the studio is Ricardo Bouman, a graphic designer, photographer and painter with a passion for (far) travel and discovering (mountain) landscapes, cities and architecture.

Ricardo has been painting with watercolors for over 25 years and translates his own travel experiences into paintings. His webshop offers various subjects such as: Illustrative realism, Line drawings, Impressionism, Line & Wash and Modern Abstract painting.

Ricardo is a traditional illustrator and painter. He therefore does not use 'Ai' (artificial intelligence). All his works are handmade and created from his own (travel) experiences, ideas and expertise in the field of painting. His subjects often have a connection with nature, an emotion or a (city) location that he has visited himself.
His motto is: 'To be able to create atmosphere, you must first have tasted it'

Ricardo does everything in a traditional way. From stretching the watercolor paper, sketching and drawing the composition and subject, to painting with watercolors and inks.

All paintings are photographed in high resolution and available in this webshop as wall decoration on various materials and sizes.
