| "Vernazza" by Stephanie Berry |
This is a small coastal town in Italy in a region called Cinque Terre. Cinque Terre is made up of 5 villages that sit at the bottom of high cliffs along the shore of the Mediterranean. It would be so lovely to be there rather than in the middle of a Nor'easter and chillin' at 11 degrees.
This painting took a lot of work partly due to its size. I'm still not convinced it doesn't need some adjustments but we'll see. I'll hang it where we can scrutinize it for a while.
p.s. This is the revised Vernazza. I found about 6 things I needed to adjust--one was that I saw 2 eyes in the sky. Now tell me why is it that I could not see that when painting this?

Wow, that's a good size painting! I think it's just wonderful! I so want to be there right now, instead of being where i am! Brrrr....
It's a really great painting Stephanie ! So many things going on and you just captured the whole scene perfectly, immediately recognizeable, I spent a lot of weekends there ! If it can be of any consolation we are expecting snow and cold in all of Italy :-)
Yes, very inviting, wish I were there. Looks amazing to me, love those colours.
EXCELLENT painting, Stephanie!! There's so many wonderful details to see. I can see you put a lot of work into this painting!! I love it!
I've been to Cinque Terre, and this painting brings back fond memories. Wonderful colors! I love "Farmer's Market" also!
Ooh! Love the pinks and the white car.
This is such a beautiful painting, absolutely brilliant, I love it :)
