Before leaving home l bought a ticket to Saint Mark’s Basilica. I also wanted to go upstairs to see the horses and the view from the balcony. I wasn’t sure I could do all that climbing, but the website said you could purchase that portion at the basilica. Unfortunately the only was you could buy a ticket was to scan the QR code and do it on your phone. But to do that I would need working with-fi and I didn’t have that. I was out of luck. Instead I headed outside to sketch. I sat on a ledge by the bell tower. That was fine until it got crowded and people kept blocking my view. I did the best that I could.
This is a section next to Saint Mark’s Cathedral done in toned paper with ink, a white Posca marker, and watercolors.

Beautiful and touching.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I’m glad I brought my white Posca marker.
