Impressions – Cinque Terre

Italy

AB-13_Impressions-CinqueTer

This painting is the first of my new ‘Impressions’ series, and a loose interpretation of the beautiful Italian Cinque Terre village, Riomaggiore. I’m working in mostly acrylic paint for this series, but using a variety of tools to apply the paint to the canvas.

Details of this painting can be found in both Gallery – Abstracts and Gallery – Italy.

Riomaggiore Facade, Cinque Terre, Italy

Riomaggiore-Facade,-CinqueTDetails of this painting can be found in Gallery – Italy.

The Cinque Terre is one of my favourite regions in Italy.  Although rather touristy, the five villages each have their own character, tucked into their mountainous backdrops, and spilling down onto the rocky coastline.  Riomaggiore, is probably the largest village, and has a special appeal to me. I can’t get enough of the colourful haphazard houses, their matching shutters, and the general chaotic-ness of the place!

Art Weekly No 148 – Riomaggiore Colours, Cinque Terre

AW-148_RiomaggioreColours_C

3rd September 2014 –

Italy again, and one of my favourite spots to paint. Cinque Terre, although touristy, is an absolute inspiration to me with its five villages – a multitude of little brightly coloured awkwardly placed houses all crammed together over small picturesque harbours. Riomaggiore is one of the larger, and probably my favourite.  I noticed when painting this one that virtually every single shutter is painted the same shade of green too!
