ITALY 2011!

...In caps because if I was posting it right after the trip
I would have been that excited.XD
Still excited now, but atm kinda sleepy hehe.

Anyways, here you go.
I shall just leave you now with these ugly yellow scans of my journal for the epic 2011 summer=) Selection of those pages that is wold be bearable.

PS: And I am glad you cant read my writing=)
















I think it's not my screen anymore..or my mom's screen
The scanner is actually pretty screwed up. D;
(I did...pop its lid accidentally today)
Need new scanner now.T_T.....wow..I actually do for work etc.o.o
(though the dark pages scan okey..)

Here are some pages from my watercolor moleskin,
which I finished with...a third of it for italy!>..>
But anyway I really like the moleskin watercolors..shall keep on invest in them until I discover another suitable one with a better price. Sigh







Mostly done with Gouache or Watercolor, or mix
Some are unfortunately unfinished, but I think I will leave them.
If you are ever in Italy for a short period of time, you will understand,
how much you want to finish a painting of a beautiful sight to the best of your abilities, yet you couldn't because there is just so much more you want to capture. You don't want to lose a second at this place.

PS:Last one above is the only painting I had done in Venice sadly.




Oversized paintings/ ink work...there was really no point in bring sheets that big. Not use to working that big anymore, haha. Not for quicker location works..sigh. Only if I had more time, I wouldn't even have to resort to ink for the last one. (Literally done on the day before we had to leave Florence) T^T Only if I lived in Italy of course..sigh
