As Venice sleeps

As Venice Sleeps   acrylic on paper 17x27cm ©2012 Lisa Le Quelenec
I had forgotten, I hadn't posted this painting that was completed just before my visitors arrived. This was the last painting that I will do of Venice for a while. Duty calls and I am returning to the beach as exhibitions are fast approaching. I really enjoyed the change of location even if the themes running through are similar. I always shy away from buildings and architecture so it was a challenge for me to find a way of representing them without going into too much detail. Do you think it works?

Hi there Lisa!... "Once... in A Blue Moon" works for me! HA HA!!

Your beautifully blue... and abstract design conjures up sweet memories of my eight weeks studying and living in Venice... too many years ago!

You have created an extraordinary "take" on Venezia! Welldone!

Good Painting!... and Good luck at the Beaches!
Warmest regards,
Bruce

Thanks Bruce, I've enjoyed this little trip but the beach is where I belong. We are coming to the season of beautiful morning skies and sunsets and the storms. The beach empties out at this time of year and it's at it's most beautiful.
