Drawings from Aix

by rickyvilla81 - last update: Oct 18, 2003

Van Gogh sky

Painted while I lived in aix, this view can be seen if you are walking along Rue Espariat from Discount Photo and you look up, which isn't a good idea in Aix (as you may step in dogs poo)

The Place

This was drawn on a cold February afternoon at the Place de l'Hotel de Ville.

Thermal springs

This thermal fountain can be found in the middle of the road in Cours Mirabeau. As you see it was drawn on blue paper.

Poulet-Frites

Open 24 hours, this poulet-frites stand (as I have dubbed them) by the Rotonde and Av des Belges does a bloody good meal, way nicer than the Flunch restaurant just behind it...

One fountain of many

This little non-potable fountain can be found at the foot of Cour Sextius. The amount of pigeons that swim in this thing I would certainly not drink from it...

A map of Aix

This map was drawn in the style of those I had found of Marseille (see Marseille page). I have tried to include lots of typical aixois details, but have mis-spellt "Jourdan" to rhyme with "nain"...

 Update on John Malkovich. I was in Aix last January and a friend of mine who works at the travel agency near the Monoprix on the Cours told me that JM no longer lives there. He may have moved to Paris, but I have also heard he'd moved to Boston.

 Rickie, I returned to your great page - this time because we booked a flight to Marseille and I am looking for info on where to base ourselves: Aix or Marseille! You got ME convinced already! Thanks!
