And this winter has been absolutely gorgeous here in Cape Town - a couple of weeks of rain (which is necessary to fill those depleted dams) and some lovely, lovely warm sunshine. So, apart from the society work that keeps me out of mischief, I have been happily painting in my studio in the back garden (no heating you see!)
Inspired by le Tour de France, I have posted this painting I did a couple of months ago of a cycle tour we have here - The Cape Argus. If you want to see some amazing paintings of le Tour, have a look at Rob Ijbema's blog - he paints the Tour every year!

Bonsoir ma chère amie,
Une peinture qui ferait frémir plus d'un français !... Le thème du tour de France ! Ce weekend il passe par chez moi !
J'aime beaucoup la composition de votre peinture.
La lumière qui l'illumine est fabuleuse.
Je m'en vais voir le blog de Rob ljbema...
Gros bisous et un grand merci pour votre gentil message.

WoW!! love this painting, Liz!!!
Wonderful job and glad you're back!
missed you.
Wonderful painting.. so nice to see you your work again.
Hi Liz,
Seeing your work after a long time and its WONDERFUL!! Love the colors of the bicyclists on a monochrome background! The other day, Prabal and me were remembering you...that we were seeing so less of you now! But glad you are back, and we hope to see more of your works :)
And thanks so much for posting your comment on my work! Very sweet :)
Take care
I love this painting too, so great to see you posting again Liz. Keep em coming :)
Liz,
Yes last time Ramesh and I met we did discuss that we were missing you. And I guess we'll be seeing less of you now here. Coming to the painting I think this is one hell of a difficult subject to paint. I would probably take another 5-6 years before I can attempt this. And I really like the painterly look of this one.
Take care and lots of good wishes..
Beautiful painting Liz! Thanks for the link too :)
This painting came our wonderful. I am sure it was not an easy task, Liz!
Very beautiful painting...love the contrast between soft background and hard edges of some of the bikes.
I want someone here suffering from any disease to heal from my story after Hiv disease for the last 3 years and having hard to eat and cough are nightmares,especially the first year. At this stage, the immune system is severely weakened, and the risk of contracting opportunistic infections is much greater. However, not everyone with HIV will go on to develop AIDS. The earlier you receive treatment, the better your outcome will be.I started taking ARV to avoid early death but I had faith in God that i would be healed someday.As a Hiv patient we are advise to be taking antiretroviral treatments to reduce our chance of transmitting the virus to others , few weeks ago i came on search on the internet if i could get any information on Hiv treatment with herbal medicine, on my search i saw a testimony of someone who has been healed from Hiv her name was Achima Abelard and other Herpes Virus patient Tasha Moore also giving testimony about this same man,Called Dr Itua Herbal treatment.I was moved by the testimony and i contacted him by his Email.drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com/ www.drituaherbalcenter.com. We chatted and he send me a bottle of herbal medicine I drank it as he instructed me to.After drinking it he ask me to go for a test that how i ended my suffering life of Hiv patent,I'm cured and free of Arv Pills.I'm forever grateful to him Doctor Itua Herbal Treatment..He assured me he can cure the following disease..Hiv,Cancer,Herpes Virus,Hpv,Pile,Weak Erection,Lyme Disease,Epilepsy,Glaucoma.,Brain Tumor,psoriasis, Cataracts,Macular degeneration,Cardiovascular disease,Chronic Diarrhea,Lung disease.Enlarged prostate,Osteoporosis.Alzheimer's disease
,Diabetes,Fibroid.
