Street art





We have seen a lot of good graffiti and street art on this trip, but nowhere as much as in Paris. I thought I would share a few of my favorites here. 


I don't know if I have already shared this one seen in Ljubljana? But I like it a lot, in spite of the message. As anyone who knows me well can tell you, I am NOT a rule follower, in fact, if anything, I'm a bit of a rule breaker. One of my favorite quotes is, " if you follow all the rules, you miss all the fun", or something like that. I truly believe that. But I like this graffiti. 









Some of these photos I took, but this one was courtesy of Rita, seen in Monmartre. 
Speaking of art,we were near our neighborhood in the Village St Paul and came upon an art opening. 
In hopes of being offered a free glass of champagne, we wandered in to look at the art. I told Rita I would give my eye teeth for a photo of the " food" on offer. No fancy canapés or even some cheese, rather on the large table there was a small plate of some tiny muffin like cakes, and a plate of what looked like the candies I remember from my childhood as " dots", in bright colors. Very chic. And no one offered us champagne. So much for the Paris art scene! Haha.
