Venice

This oil painting I have done from a photo during a visit last autumn. I have used muted limited palette again, but these colours appear quite bright on this reproduction. I`m not sure if it is really showing the mood has it was. I quite like these quick drying oils, it suites my immediate approach, I suppose!
I hope you find it interesting.

That Look

I like peroid garments and especially ladies hats. For me they provide a hiding place for expression. This painting I hope is creating a sence of intrigue. What is this lady thinking? I wonder.
