+++++ What Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"Summer Breeze is a daydream from heaven; more than that, it is a dream of a
perfect day. Puffy white clouds dance in the heavens, while white sails shimmer off azure
waters. The joyful tranquility of the scene refreshes the soul. Southern France - the hills
of Provence and the dramatic coastline of the Cote d'Azur is blessed with such perfect
days, when an endless stream of sunlight pours over beaches and gardens. The great
Impressionist masters - Monet, Sisley, and Renoir - were inspired by such splendor, now I, as
Robert Girrard, join their company. I began my love affair with Impressionism years ago,
on a walk through Southern France. In the coming months, Nanette and I intend to return
to the source on a bicycle sketching tour. Summer Breeze uses broken color and broad
strokes to engage the imagination; it invites you to join the artist in my heavenly
daydream."
