Parisian Perspective: The Eiffel Tower

This is a view of the Eiffel Tower, but I don't think it's the typical 'postcard shot' everyone’s used to. I found this spot right down a street lined with these classic Parisian buildings—you know, with their charming facades and wrought-iron balconies. The way the tower peeks through at the end of the road, it’s almost like it’s playing hide and seek with you.

I spent quite some time getting the colors just right; there’s a warmth to them that I think really captures that golden Paris light. And if you look closely, there are these little details—like the cobblestone street and the leafless trees—that give it a sense of life. It’s like you can almost hear the distant sounds of the city.

It’s funny how something so grand as the Eiffel Tower can seem so intimate when framed by these streets we walk every day. It’s this blend of grandeur and everyday life that fascinates me about Paris. This painting is my little attempt to bottle up that feeling and share it with others.
