"Were I called on to define, very briefly, the term Art, I should call it the reproduction of what the Senses perceive in Nature through the veil of the soul." - Edgar Allan Poe

An Italian State of Mind...

 It must be my longing for a long, hot summer that made me look at my Italian photos again...... I just finished these two watercolors this past week .....
   

Duomo, Florence
End of Day

                                                                              




Then I decided to try doing one of them in oil for a change.... here's the result..... what do you think
about Oil versus Water..... can an artist consistently do both well or does an affinity for one medium over another influence the result?
