4/21/17 ink, water-soluble colored pencils |
Almost exactly 11 years ago, Greg and I took our first
European trip ever (and it was only the second time we’d ever used our
passports) – to Italy. As vivid as much of those two weeks remain in my mind, I
know many sights have faded from memory because I didn’t sketch them. (I
suppose I took photos, but that was before I got a digital camera – I’m not
even sure where those envelopes of photos are.) Ever since I took up sketching,
I’ve been wanting to return to that romantic and magical country to see it
properly –with a sketchbook. We are finally on our way back to the land of
pastel-colored houses, sparkling blue water and a different flavor of gelato
every day!
I went to Italy the year before I started sketching. Looking forward to seeing your sketches!!
