TILES AND ZINC – sold

When I lived in Paris, I was lucky enough to have access to the rooftop of a 12 storey-apartment building in the 15th district. Every morning around 7 am for the entire summer, the city was mine. Although the 360° view included the Eiffel Tower or the Invalides Dome Church, I was drawn to the simple zinc and tiles roofs.

Blue and orange with zillion chimneys. I felt like Mary Poppins and her chim chimneys’ friends. I knew I had to clean my brushes when I could smell the delicate perfume of toasted bread. Someone had the elegance of having his or her breakfast at the time I was supposed to leave! Ils sont chics ces parisiens!
