Travels

One of my other hobbies is leading tour groups with my friend, Scott "Serge" Bernhard. On our joint trips we have visited many picturesque villages in mostly southern France. France is a very special place to me since it has such fine appreciation of art. It has fabulous museums and nice places to sit with a glass of wine and watch the world go by. It's the only country that I know that puts a picture of an artist on its money instead of a politician. It's too bad that they had to adopt the euro. Serge and I find most necessary to go back as often as possible to try out one more fabulous dish and find that unbelievably good wine. I usually teach sketching and watercolor along the way. You will find among watercolors among the pages. France sketches and photos In the Fall of 2001 Cheryl, Kristen (our 18 year old daughter) and I took an unbelievable voyage around the world. I have put together a series of pages that link the photos and watercolors as the voyage progressed. Some of the new countries on my list include new photos from Japan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, India, Seychelles, South Africa, Brazil, Paraguay and Cuba have been included. Individual photos are linked below. (See only Semester at Sea photos and watercolors from this page )
