Canal Bridge


6 x 8 inches - oil on canvasboard  - Here is another scene from the canals in Venice. I used a Google Earth image as my reference for this. You can actually use Streetview from the canals just like a city street.

Canal in Vanice



6 x 6 inches - oil on gessoboard. There are many wonderful things about Italy. The people are very friendly and relaxed, the food is great, the scenery is spectacular but one of the best things is Venice. The light there is like no other place I have seen and every thing travels by boat.  A few years ago we took my 89 year old mother to Venice. When we told her that we were taking a taxi back to the airport she said "You can't fool me - its a boat".
