Painting the Canals of Venice

Painting the Canals of Venice

When in Venice I spend countless hours walking the bridges, back alleyways and canals of Venice in search of painting spots.I tend to shy away from the overly crowded tourist spots and look for something more intimate.I also love anything crumbling. Don’t ask me why but imperfections are just my style, .2 Boats on the Canal, Rio delle Munghette23x30cmoil on linen board©Kelly MedfordSOLDThe colors of Venice: pink, gray, blue, black and green and the soft light are a whole other game compared to Rome and a new challenge for mixing colors on the palette.More to come soon.See other recent paintings from Venice, Rome and other parts of Italy here on my webisteThank you for your interest in my work.
