Cafe Scene
These are so much fun to paint. Plenty of interaction between the figures, subtle plots and sub-plots, real conversation pieces. Cafe scenes seem to embody the essence of a holiday or a place or indeed the happier less complicated aspects of life- if you don't have to run one of course!

On holiday one year we called into this cafe, I was surprised and initially miffed when I found that their menus included an A4 repro of my painting! Although unauthorised and leaving aside international copyright law it is quite a compliment really. This year we got a free drink!!
