Today we learned to look at the Tuscan countryside with different eyes. We are having art lessons! Our teacher is a woman with the patience of a saint, and the sense of humor to keep us laughing. Elizabeth Cochrane is a friend of Gail's, and a fabulous artist. Liz is a artist who lives in Montisi. She has been painting Tuscan landscapes for more than 15 years~ both water colors and oils. Several people went home with one of her paintings!
I only went home with a water color 'corrected by Liz'. It is still good enough to frame. I'll show the finished product later. Poppies and olive trees... A memory of our week in Tuscany!Ciao y'all,
Sandi

What a wonderful idea, taking a painting class -- and what a great souvenir of Tuscany!
I'm not a very good cook but I've taken a few cooking classes when I've visited Italy and I'm amazed at what I've learned and what great memories the class has given me!
Can't wait to see what you have created!!!
Have fun!!!
Liz is an excellent artist.
