You arrive by boat, to the small fishing village of Sensole .
Find a shady spot under the Olive tree but close enough to the Lake edge. Silhouetted misty turquoise trees in the
distance, a few Villa’s some with warm terracotta and Yellow Ochre walls, a few
glistening white with shadows of cool Blues.
Olive Trees and Poplars,
easy to paint fill the landscape down to the lake edge. A few Geraniums add
splashes of Red to compliment the Green foliage. The Lake
totally different to an English lake seems more opaque with shades of light
Turquoise to dark Emeralds and flashes of reflections from the above landscape.
With Cerulean Blue stripped posts placed strategically to help lead the eye
into the scene.
If you would like to learn how I painted the scene above to the one below with watercolours.
I've wrote a step by step tutorial that you can download through Etsy
