Brimming with joie de vivre, France provides a glimpse into the gorgeous sketchbooks that artist Rae Dunn compiles during her annual sojourns in Paris, Provence, and the French Riviera. Colors, tastes, and smells come to life with each turn of the page, as Dunn's charming watercolor sketches and dreamy photographs beautifully depict the cityscapes, landscapes, foods, and pastimes that epitomize the romance of France. Additionally, hand-lettered notes reveal Dunn's inspirations as an artist.
