A European Showing?
We visited the famous Guggenheim Gallery while in Venice. After viewing half of the exhibition, we parked ourselves on the outdoor terrace that fronts onto the Grand Canal for a bit of a rest.
I pulled out my sketchbook and my paints and put together this little vignette of the scene across the water.
Since the paint was stilll damp, I carried my open sketchbook in hand while we toured the remainder of the gallery. Do you suppose that qualifies as my first international art exhibition?
Nah, I didn’t think so!
I was able to go to Venice in the 1970’s while we were stationed with the US Air Force in Spain. I have always said if I had the opportunity to return, all I would need was a one-way ticket. Your painting and notes bring back such delightful memories. Thank you for sharing!
