This drawing is just magnificent -- the colors are so soft and warm, and it makes me want to leave the cold California rain behind and jet off to Italy!

The Accademia Bridge is just to the left, btw, and across the Campo San Vidal from this building is the Palazzo Franchetti and its beautiful garden (hello, Google Earth!).<br />Your giveaway is such a generous gesture. I'm fortunate to have my very own Shell original, and I wish buona fortuna to all your fans—can't wait to find out who lucked out!Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620873522996260383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815983123229218451.post-25520855884627283232009-12-12T03:11:44.851+10:002009-12-12T03:11:44.851+10:00On a gloomy day like today this illo is a ray of s...On a gloomy day like today this illo is a ray of sunshine.

I like art prints a lot as they enable me to divide my money out over more wall area, and of course I tell people that they are the originals.<br /><br />Now, down to business.
