You live there? Where do you vacation....my town??? I like it a lot Jane, I often prefer work that looks "unfinished," especially by people who could finish it if they wanted to. (big difference!) There's a green house next to a small bridge adjacent the Santa Maria della Salute -I want to live in: "my house!" lat=45.4301774703, lon=12.3343454461

Figure out how I'm going to swing that, and I'll owe a gelato!!

i liked what happened with the sky and st pauls section ..lost it a bit after that ..thankyou so much for your words of encouragement.

ciao

Gelato sounds pretty chintzy on second thought. How about lunch at Florian? I refuse to be ripped off at Harry's Bar again.
That section is the superlative of the painting for me!

JANE MINTER ha detto...

thanks for getting back on that comment nick ... just might have to take you up on that offer !
