Ciao, Italia! This April, I spent two weeks site-seeing (read: art-seeing) and painting in Rome, Venice, and Florence. Glorious! Most of the painting was done in Venice, an ages-old city for painters. I developed a beautiful cadence to the day, waking most days to paint the sunrise from the Grand Canal before the crowds descended and another morning painting a couple hours later, followed by a leisurely lunch and rest before readying myself for another painting session at sunset (usually two paintings made in rapid succession).

I returned to motifs that moved me, the ones that I felt I couldn’t NOT paint, finding a lovely connection between the towers of the Venetian monuments and in the softness of the sunrises and in the wild-incredible-breathtaking (literally!) colors of the sky at sunset. Thank you, as always, for looking and collecting.
