Bongiorno from Cortona! I don't think there could be a more lovely place to live and paint for a week! I haven't been here a full 24 hours, but already I am smitten. The town is perched on the hillside and has only one flat street. Everything else is either up or down.
Today I begin teaching eight wonderful women. We will work in our journals each day outside, en plein aire, to capture the essence of the moment and really really LOOK at what is around us.
We began last night, meeting our guides Patrick and Angela of ToscanaAmericana, who hosted a wonderful dinner at a charming little restaurant.
But now the bells in the Piazza are ringing and it is time for some of that amazing Italian coffee. I cannot wait to see the creative joys that come out of this week together. Stay tuned for more pictures - sketched, painted, and photographed!
