My French Dreams of Provence a Letter

Finding a way forward while staying in place
Dear Friends,
During this pandemic, I find myself in my art studio sanctuary. I am using this time to reflect on my wanderlust and travels while revisiting my photo collection of times past. For now, I am enjoying Provence (virtually), reflecting on beautiful places and the people that I have had the pleasure of spending time with and our shared art-filled experiences. While looking through these images, I experienced such joy, and an immense feeling of gratitude washed over me. Once again, a big smile returned with the hope that soon, I may return to Ma Belle France.
I wanted to share a few of those beautiful photos so that they might uplift and inspire you to reach out to a beautiful, creative life of travel, new experiences and meeting people from different cultures. All that inspiration awaits you in my next adventure.
Join me in the future when we can come together to experience these artful, fulfilling places once again— Provence from an Artists’ Point of View ART Tours.
Please stay in touch.
ONWARD and UPWARD
In Gratitude!
Marti
