Riga Through The Window

Riga, Latvia

I made this painting while on a little retreat in a guest house near Cesis, Latvia.

I started painting a classic still life/floral but then thought about how Henri Matisse often placed his still life compositions in front of open windows, I decided to make the back drop an open window with my favorite panorama, the skyline of Riga.

I brought it home and my wife made me promise to never sell it. It now hangs in our Family Room.
