30 Paintings in 30 Days - Day 30 - Venice Sunrise

Today is the final day of the "30 Paintings" challenge spearheaded by Leslie Saeta.
You can see all the work by the other artists here. http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.com
Voting takes place on Sea Dean's blog. http://paintamasterpiece.blogspot.com

I had to finish up the challenge with a painting of one of my favorite places, Venice.
This was painted from a sketch I had done while I was there on one of my trips.

I went out to paint today and found a nice snowy scene across a small pond in Brightwaters.

  1. Hmmm, which one would I take? A Venice sunrise or a snowy Brightwaters View? Both are beautiful. It would be impossible to decide.

  2. Love the Venice Sunrise, you were there, how wonderful for you. You stood where other great artist stood and painted, Turner, Sargent , Whistler and not to forget David Dunlop. See you soon.
