View From Ravello

 


I painted this while sitting on an ancient stone wall in Ravello, Italy, feet hanging, with a big drop beneath me. The view was just breathtaking. The village was clinging to the hillside, surrounded by stepped vineyards and a sweeping panorama of mountains. This area is along the Amalfi coast. A lesson had been booked for me and surprise, it was with Leo Kennedy, an Irish painter living there at the time. The good thing was that there was no language barrier. The rest of our group took a cooking lesson so we all ate scrumptious food together at the end of the day. Very special time.
