RE: The treasures left behind by my great-grandfather #6 - Burgundian Houses
Lovely water colours and article! I had no idea about the Côte Chalonnaise... it's the downside with living outside of my home country for so long... I know better foreign countries than my own ^^
I know what you mean @herverisson... I've lived in other countries far more years than my own. Where are you from originally?
From France, like you ;) It's funny, now I realize that I had a grand-father who could draw pretty well... Not paint as good as your great grandfather but it had its charm. It's incredible to think of the skills our old ones developped :)
Yes, and how very little we know how to use our hands to perfect a skill, or in my great-grandfather's case, quite a few different skills.
Any leftover drawings from your grandpa? Would be lovely to see a few.
Where from France are you from?
I'm from Strasbourg (pour aller vite) :) And no, unfortunately, I don't know what happened to those drawings after his death and all... Got lost in the inheritance probably
Dommage pour les dessins..
Nice to meet a fellow expat :) Quite a big expat community here on Steemit.
