Campo San Polo

 We are renting an apartment in Campo San Polo. I did a composite sketch of vignettes from the area. Most of the squares or campos have fountains. Perfect to fill water bottle or get a drink. The pigeons love it too. 

Below that is a face…part lion and part human over one of the doors.

On the top right is a group of trees that provide welcome shade to those seated underneath.

The sketch on the bottom right is another smaller tree that provides a little shade. Behind it you can see one of the awnings of Trattoria San Polo. We’ve eaten there quite a few times. It is close to our apartment and you don’t have to cross a bridge to get there, and the food is good. That makes it a winner in my eyes.

House and Fountain

Today I was able to get out and sketch for a while and it felt good. Jerry has been taking a nap in the afternoon, so I make sure to set him up with what he might need...including a phone and I have been able to get out for a little while. I debated over going food shopping or painting but the idea of painting won. I headed into Sayville. I've painted this location a few times before because I love that this homeowner has this big fountain in their yard. This was done directly in watercolor so this counts for my Day 18 #30x30DirectWatercolor.


Yesterday I snuck in a quick sketch before an appointment.
