I was dropped off at the market in Bretenoux, about 30 minutes drive from Coin Perdu, early this morning. After doing my market shopping…olives and saucisson and tomatoes and peaches and berries….oh, and salad… I had time left while waiting to be picked up. Took out my sketchbook, walked around, sketched two market scenes and the “eglise”, opposite the market. My ride showed up and I had just enough time to blotch the church. A quaint little town in the department of Lot…see the link above for some nice reading on Bretenoux. But I still prefer the much quieter and rustic Correze where we have our little hide away…
…le marché à Bretenoux – baskets galore…
…colorful umbrellas on a sunny day at the market…

Aren’t umbrellas wonderful – well yours are, Ronell. Such joyful, lively sketches. Happy birthday, again!
Wonderful to have extra time to sketch! These give such a great feel of the day….. Your day 🙂 Happy celebrations!
Again your sketches have such great vitality and capture the atmosphere of places. Like them very much.
Love those French street markets and love the drawings.
