I painted this sitting under an overhang by a church doorway while it was drizzling. I love the balconies here and all the flowers...very inspiring. Ciao!
Hi Joan .... these are all terrific ... great trip ... so much beautiful details ans architecture, definately not the easiest to do ... love your palette too
wHAT INCREDIBLE VENICE PAINTINGS, JOAN! I'm back at home and enjoying once again your beautiful work! I LOVE the water, St. Mark's and especially this one -- those balconies just took our breaths .... and you've done an outstanding job on it -- and in the rain! BRAVA!!! I hope your time there is fantastic .... you're certainly building a fabulous memory and painting collection!
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.
