We are so fortunate to live here half the year in Umbria near a big lake, Lago Trasimeno... We love having this water element in our lives here, much like living near the Pacific Ocean in California.
Johnny likes comeing out to one or two of the islands to paint, and we've been lucky with good weather this week.
 |
| Though the skies started out cloudy, it got better and better as the day went on... |
 |
| Always nice to paint with a castle in the background, right? |
 |
| Always dealing with hauling and setting up "the stuff" to paint. |
 |
| Settling in to work. |
 |
| Laying in the lines... |
 |
| A wonderful view of a little village, "Monte del Lago" , in the distance. |
 |
| Done. |
We walked all around the island, stopping for a glass of wine and a pic-nic...
Below, Johnny working on a second painting for the day...
 |
| He really got the sky just right. |
Below, in the studio...several of the plein-air paintings done so far...
