We visited this Cafe in Paris a few years ago. A large window was the feature in the room. Lots of contrast and diagonals, and delicious darks. I hope you enjoy watching this video, and consider painting it yourself. Start from scratch, or use my sketch, which I suggest you print onto watercolour paper.
Let me see your work! Upload it to Facebook or Instagram, and add my "handle" to the caption. Then I will see it.

You will notice that I am collecting emails, in case I have a social media disaster and lose all my followers. But if you don't want to do that, just close the box, no probs.
