Day 24 - Venice


“The surface of Venice is constantly metamorphosing [and] painting Venice is almost like being a restorer, peeling off the layers to find the picture after picture underneath.” Arbit Blatas

Some of my happiest memories before my husband passed away are of our 25th wedding anniversary trip to Venice. It was everything I could have imagined it to be. Beautiful, mysterious, historical and romantic. I returned a year later after Pat died to walk in our footsteps. It was difficult, but so necessary in my grieving process. I hope to paint more of Venice and reveal the layers beneath...
