The Villa
11 x 14 oil on gesso board.
I just finished this piece. Its the front of a villa right outside of Florence, Italy. I don't love traveling but I love to be in other places once I've traveled. (How does one get there without traveling? hmmm.) My step-daughter's wedding was so beautiful and the trip was truly inspiring. I've done several mini paintings and I'm currently working on my 5th larger one. I have quite a few more photos to work from but eventually will run out and will either go back to painting still lifes (which I enjoy doing) or I will have to take another trip somewhere gorgeous. The world is a beautiful place and with billions of glorious places, people, and things, I should be permanently set up. The trick is paying attention and I think I'm getting a little better at that.
