This is a second painting of rain in Venice, the sky is heavy with moisture.
Santa Maria della Salute in the rain
-
Rain is once again feeling like a distant memory. I first painted this view nearly two years ago when I began my journey with palette knives.
-
Montecelli is the archetypal Italian settlement. Terracotta roofs peak out from behind the trees, and sunflowers fill the fields in true picture postcard fashion.
-
The Montecelli hilltop, isolated by a sea of sunflowers and guarded by poplars, lies on the edge of an expansive vineyard.
-
My little corner of Italy has many fields of sunflowers. They follow the sun in silent adoration, each head moving precisely as their god moves across the sky.
-
An approaching storm goes un-noticed as I crawl, pallet knife in hand, across the canvas. Each stroke made with uncertainty, without knowledge, just exploration.
Arquà Petrarca with Sunflowers 2
-
The path across Monte Cecilia to Arquà Petrarca runs under my bathroom window, and on a Sunday morning takes happy walkers over the hill before the day gets too hot.
Arquà Petrarca with Sunflowers 1
-
Friends are important. The sight of an elderly woman jumping up and down shouting me, me! and pointing at my neighbour Andrea's friend's tractor, is the same in any language.
-
Returning to an old favourite, the sunflower. Now I can see so much more in their shapes and forms.
-
For me, returning to sunflowers is returning to my beginning, these flowers have always been good to me, even when painted in a dreary room in Cornwall they filled my life with hope.
