A dismal day in Tuscany

The weather wasn't at it's best to start with.  Our task for the day was to paint the same view in the morning light, then again in the afternoon light.  Sadly the light was pretty flat and remained constant for the entire day.  So - only the one painting this day.  I did try to do other late afternoon light versions late in the week but none of them were finished due to pressures of time.

What a revelation to find I can paint in oils on good quality watercolour paper.  It needs further treatment to ensure its archival properties, but any works sold will be suitably mounted and sealed.  Many thanks to Maddine Insalaco of Etruscan Places for the information and research.
