Venice
There will be a lot more ... we arrived yesterday and woke up here. This is the view from our window early morning.
Florence
We were only in Florence for two nights...I took just a few pictures because looking at paintings and sculpture takes eyes not cameras. I thought my friend David Maxim's paintings of museum goers. Most people ran up took a picture of the painting and one of the label and didn't even look at the painting, just ran off to the next picture. Everywhere there were hordes taking selfies.
From the Academia:
The Ufizzi is doing a big renavation project...many works are in different places or not on view. There were so many wonderful pieces. I think I'll write more later.
Took this of the Domo early morning before the tourist lines and hawkers selling selfie sticks.

And the Adventure begins!
After visiting with Kristin Kohl and seeing her print in the print show Dan and Kristin delivered us to airport. What a beautiful 90 degrees in Portland.
Not a lot of sleep on the plane to Charlotte. Arrived at 5:30 am leave for Rome at 6:30. Charolette, NC was inetesting. Went to the Harvey B. Gantt Center saw Art of the New Deal African American Artists in the WPA. Also a great park with books and poetry themed sculptures, sheets of brass throughout the park with poems! (Pictures to come next week!)
