An artist wanders the streets in Montmartre, Paris, looking for people to paint, or maybe he's going home? It has simple perspective, and basic human shapes.
Anyone can paint this picture. It is very loose and the details do not need to be "accurate". My website has the photo, and my quick sketch is there as well. You can print the sketch onto A4 watercolour paper. On your printer, just choose the "plain paper" option.
Let me see your work! Upload it to Facebook or Instagram, and add my name to the caption. Then I will see it.
