Bicycle Shop


I saw this painting on a wall above a bicycle shop recently. I thought it was a sweet painting, so I'm showing it here. It looks like the paint is coming off a bit though. I hope they touch it up soon!
P.S. I see it is by the artist Sempé. I love his work!

You make me begin the day with a smile ..., there is several poetry in this drawing than in a hundred love messages.

That is a nice picture. The scene must have taken a ton of paint -- the yellow. And it would be a shame to lose the picture as it is very nice.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I appreciate seeing your name there.

Hi everybody, it was nice of you all to stop by today. Thanks for your comments

(Mandy, yes it was a mural done on the wall above a bicycle shop. I should have showed the shop window below it, then it would have made more sense!)
