On our last painting day with Carolyn before she flew back to the states, we drove for about an hour to some location; I’m not sure where. The spot she hoped to paint turned out undesirable; so we headed back to one he has passed on the way. On our way to a new spot, Jason and Carolyn wanted to check out a small town. We drove in, liked it and decided to paint there. It was another of the small hill towns of Umbria; the town was called Montepulciano.
I started two paintings, one of a house with two windows and a lot of “wall character” and one of a view of the town. I only finished the painting of the city. I think this is my best painting so far this summer. I might do this one as my final project, a larger painting. The challenge is I took the photo in the morning, but painted it in the afternoon. I forgot to take a photo in afternoon light. Oh well…
After I finished my painting, I went into the town and took some pictures. Here’s one of my favorites of a sleeping kitty, dead-to-the-world. She really looked dead to me until I saw her move. I may turn her into a painting.And here, by special request, are pictures of “walls”.
Hey Lynne, there are for you! Let me know if these fit the bill or if there is something specific you’re looking for.
