Amazing late evening light near the soltice in the Piazza Navona...it was too late in the day to paint there, so this was painted today in Civita while I was inside during a rainstorm! |

Back to the Piazza Navona right around the solstice
There was heavy rain this afternoon in Civita, so I pulled out my sketchbook and painted this sketch that I had drawn late in the day on my one full day in Rome. I had been to the Pantheon before (remember the wonky jet lag perspective?), and being a true glutton for punishment, I headed to the Piazza Navona to do one last Rome sketch. Yes, I was still groggy with jet lag and it was probably 8pm, but I was determined to make the most of my one day in this beautiful city.
Very interesting posts and I enjoy reading your comments on the process and your mental musings. Your explanation of your process is easy to follow and instructive. I'm glad you're including us in your journey. Best wishes. Frank B

Just amazing, Stephanie! You have captured the evening sunset time, and the GLOW on those buildings is so wonderful! I hope you can continue to post because it's really beneficial to hear about the journey...and to see your process.
