Acrylic & Ink Painting

Here we are back in Greece once again. Creatively though, I’ve put the brakes on and stayed in France as I wanted paint some of the small hilltop villages in Provence. St Paul de Vence is a medieval fortified village in the Gorges de Loup, up in the hills north of Cannes. The area is a mecca for artists with lots of interesting galleries tucked away in the narrow streets.
We had a great drive through Provence and spent two nights there to recover from packing up the house yet again. We then drove into Italy for two nights in Moneglia, where we finally managed to hop on a local train and spend some time in Cinque Terra – visited 3 of the 5 villages – totally amazing – paintings will follow! After the drive across Italy, we had a very long delayed ferry trip having stopped in the middle of the night to offload a seriously ill truck driver (we suspect probably deceased!), and then a diversion to Brindisi in southern Italy (we sailed from Ancona further up north) where we had to await Italian police clearance before we could leave.... In fact, we were still in Italy 5 hours after we were supposed to be in Greece...... aaah the joys of travel!
