My plan is to travel and work around the world. Will be cycling most of the way apart from the odd flight to avoid the war zones! Probably take about three years to do it and I've started the 100 week countdown to setting off in June 2013. Will be painting along the way and will post images as I go. (Old Plan) ................
CYCLE AND PAINT!
(New Plan for 2016)

Voires Verts
travelled along cycle paths to Domfront and on to Arbieller for a night's camping with a bottle of red for 1.70 euros!...good for the budget.
ready for bed and the next part of the journey along the river
How's it going Dave? my son Greg and I want to know if you went on his old ridgeback he sold to you because I heard yours got stolen shortly before you embarked on your journey. I've looked at your pictures but details of your bike are inconclusive. all the best anyway Dave and I'll see in October when you call in at the college.
Hi Roy...yes it is the Ridgeback in question and its going great, not even a puncture so far! No, I didn't have to twist Madame Rousseau's arm and have almost sold a couple more since then, but not quite sealed the deal..the budget is pretty tight so I'll be out painting again tomorrow..we're in Bordeaux at the moment. Went painting this evening, but a local homeless person with bad teeth sat himself next to me and chatted for about an hour whilst drinking his wine....didn't sell any paintings!!? Glad your watch in the blog and see you in October....Dave
I think this is a good thing that your doing this sort of a thing and I'll think that it's a great adventure to be riding across the country and seeing new things that can be eye catching to the person experiencing the sort of the trying to be accomplished have a great and nice trip as well and I wish you all the luck in the world and atmosphere as well....

Over zealous sales methods Dave!!
ReplyDeleteOooh la la! I think you twisted that Madame Rousseau's arm a bit too much to get her to buy one of your paintings !!
