Mayke Sassen - some of my older artwork

Mayke Sassen - some of my older artwork

This is an image of our Camp de la Suyère, our retreat deep in the Maures mountain
range overlooking the Gulf of Saint Tropez. It is just far enough to avoid the summer hustle
and bustle while close enough to meet Jean Pierre' passion: to be on the water within minutes.
After our terrible loss of Sean Seamour II last May and our subsequent landlocked state he has
begun to plan Sean Seamour III

In the meantime I have delved into my new atelier finding new sources of inspiration you
can find in the gallery window of my website http://www.maykesassenthornton.com/galerie.php
I will soon post pictures of the atelier itself.


As not all my work is presented on the website, at the request of those interested I have
begun to post some of my older artwork on the blog as these are generally not presented
on my website, just click
http://artseaprovence.blogharbor.com/blog/Someofmyolderpaintings
to see them, notably some commissions and items in private collections.
Unfortunately some are from scanned photographic material. There is of course much
more of my work available on my website www.maykesassen.com .

I would love your feedback on what you think of these paintings and of course
what I am doing now.

The painting below that was to become Camp de la Suyère was made three
years ago, well before we had discovered our little hidden hamlet full
of history. The palm tree isn't that big but our home it is effectively composed
of three buildings of which one is separated and has become my atelier.
