This is absolutely wonderful painting. Very expressive brush work. Love the loosely approach and the dark blue accent on the figure in the background. Very atmospheric and eye pleasing color values. Great work! Peter

We love Bologna and I tried to paint this - not very good. But this is very good. I particularly love the skill you have with the people. Well done.

I walked down this portico in Bologna and saw these two chaps deep in conversation. They saw me take out my camera, smiled and immediately returned to their conversation. Painted on Saunders Waterford paper with Daniel Smith paints.
