The Leaning Tower Pisa Italy

Great painting Phil, this involved alot of work with all that detail! Thanks for your comments on the fruit painting.

What some terrific detail. The people look a bot 1980s, especially the hairdos. I love the texture; how did you do that in the sky? Texture paste?

Many thanks Lorraine & Diana. I think they had it easier in Renaissance times..........just lovely flowing robes........I try to find classic outfits for my subjects..........rather than pander to the latest fashion, which can so easily become very dated looking. The sky is just thick application of the artists acrylics, without adding paste (they are not heavy bodied acrylics).
