I have been in the amazing Italian Hill town of Civita di Bagnoregio for the past week or so, five days of which has been with a great group here for the sketching workshop, Draw Civita. They hail from the USA, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and England--a really wonderful collection of accomplished sketchers that have made my job quite easy!
Below are a few photos...we've been drawing in all sorts of places--gardens, 2500 year old caves, narrow stone streets. I'll post more photos and some of their beautiful sketches soon!

Cave Paintings! |
It has also been really wonderful to once again see all the people who made me feel so welcome here when I was here for two months last summer with the NIAUSI Astra Zarina fellowship.
More posts soon~
Ciao!
Absolutely beautiful! If I wasn't already going to Italy in September I would have been there in a heartbeat! Maybe one day
ReplyDeleteThanks, Paula...have a great time in Italy, it should be beautiful in September!
DeleteI love how each artist's sketch of the caves is a totally different view. Looks like a wonderful place and a great group.
ReplyDeleteThat is indeed so fun to see how everything sees things differently! It is a wonderful, really special place that seems to inspire the workshop groups...12 hour days of sketching! Thanks, for your comment, Joan.
