Painting in and around Geneva

In August, I spent some time near Geneva and managed to get a bit of work done around the lake and in Geneva itself. Here are a few of my studies.

The Russian church in Geneva has always intrigued me and appears out of place among the rather dour, grey respectable town houses standing around it, rather like a Hollywood star at a conference for chartered accountants. While I was painting it, a wedding party turned up with a white limousine. They stayed for a while but unfortunately not long enough for me to add them to the picture.
