Textures of Lucca
About this artwork
I began this painting when the news of the COVID 19 outbreak in Italy in early 2020, one of my favorite places to visit, made headlines. As an architectural historian, I appreciate the well-preserved Renaissance city of Lucca. Even though the town is far from where I currently live, I always have felt at home there - a quiet peace there. However, there was a three-week pause of working on the painting when I contracted the virus. With this watercolor, I strived to convey the textures, colors and memories I have of this beautiful place and the feeling I have when in the midst of its culture. The art was created on handmade paper is framed with conservation materials and rustic silver molding.
