An Artist's View

Choosing what to paint requires a fresh eye!
One of the advantages of going to a completely unfamiliar place is that you see things in a different way. The buildings aren't old and run down- they have character and fantastic lighting and unbelievable texture. The ancient fishing village of Lezzeno was written about as early as the 9th century, has wonderful churches and hidden alleyways. Most of the families have been here for more than 10 generations. We were gifted with a book of the history of the town by Gabrielle on one of our walk through town. It may take awhile to translate though!
