Painting in Le Touquet with Peter Graham

Virtual Trip to Le Touquet

Around this time of year I normally drop in to Le Touquet on the Opal Coast of Northern France. It has a wonderful art deco atmosphere as a beach town with delightful restaurants like Perard, and an expanse of golden sands and dunes. Here is a glimpse of the coast alongside a couple of paintings created on the magnificent beach - I hope you get the feel of the place and needless to say, I cannot wait to get back …hope to see you there!
