Rome

I agree- a wonderful city which I visited when I was 18 and I can assure you that’s a long time ago! You’ve captured the vastness of some of its impressive monuments, and a feel of Rome itself Sarah, really well. Challenge well met.

Nicely done Sarah.

Ah thank you very much Tessa! And thank you Stehen - much appreciated.

An excellent pastel of a place I’ve never been but your painting says everything you’ve spoken about in your write up Sarah.

Great reminder. I probably stood in that exact spot to take a photo. I took loads of photos on my camera but managed to wipe them all as I tried to upload to my laptop. Really stupid and annoying! Glad I took a few on my phone which survived! Anyway love the pastel you’ve created

It's a great city and this is a very good pastel!

The colours work beautifully, like it !

Thank you so much Fiona, Martin (such a shame about your photos!), Heather, Valerie and Paul - very much appreciated!

Thank you very much Spencer!

A great sense of distance - a challenge very well met and beautifully done!

Soft pastel on Canson paper. It's ten years since I visited Rome and was reading about the forthcoming jubilee year so I thought I'd look at my photos. What a city - one of the most exciting places I've ever been.
