Woman in White

"Woman in White", 12 x 9 In, Oil on Panel
It now seems like being in Morocco was ages ago, but I'm still painting from some of the photographs I took. A week after we got home, there was a bombing in a cafe in the Marakesh market--a cafe that my husband had wanted to go into for lunch. Interestingly, we never felt any discomfort or fear in Morocco.

Purchase this unframed painting.

  3. Thank you all for your comments! In a way, the women of Morocco that we encountered on the street were not very accessible, though they willingly returned a smile. But one young women riding a motorbike stopped next to the horse drawn carriage we were on in Marakesh. She was dressed in Moroccan women's wear--the long robe and the special scarf tightly covering all but her face. So it was with a woman's instinct that I gave her the "thumb's up" and she smiled and nodded and took off down the city street.
