Work from my trip to Florence: Spring 2016

Even though I've been back for a bit, I haven't posted any of the work I did this last trip to Florence. I spent a lot of time drawing and painting in the gardens because I find the explosion of blossoms simply irresistible. After I came back to NYC I have collaged in some of the drawings from trips to the various museums. All the work is 12 x 9 inches. The two sketchbooks (one for drawing and one with watercolor paper) are that size as well as the Yupo paper I painted on.

"Eve Weeping"
