Fountains of Spain

The Paseo del Prado in an early September afternoon is beautiful with the long cast shadows.

A painting of the Paseo del Prado in Madrid Spain. Autumn leaves of yellow, orange and green against a clear blue sky. The afternoon light casts a shadow on the trees on the side walk. You can see the main road without any cars. There is a fountain in the middle of the walk way lined by trees.

This is the fountain of the Nymphs.  It is a beautiful sight  all year long, but in the spring is when I like it most.  You can see a variety of greens and gold ochers.

I love this fountain.  It’s called the Faun Fountain.  I’ve painted it many times.  I like the contrast of the soft roses with the cold hard stone.

Parque Azorìn is near my house, less than five minutes away.  I love the fact that there are fountains all over Spain. It’s a must because the summers are scorching hot. I mean, really hot.

This the Fuente de Narciso in Aranjuez, Spain  We tied this canvas on the top of the car and drove back and forth from Madrid to Aranjuez until I finished it. It is a very large painting that would brighten up a living room with a bit of nature and mythology.

Large Oil Painting of Parque del Principe in Aranjuez, Spain. There is a stone fountain in the center of the painting with a statue of Narciso on the top and the base is made up of 4 statues of Atlas holding up the base of the dish. There are also large birds perhaps geese in the pond shoot up water high in the air.
