"Arrivederci Venezia"


It's almost a new year and I guess my resolution is to paint more, and to paint new and different things. I've had this picture for three years and never started it, but I came across this great frame in Michael's the other day and thought It might work.

We were in Venice for our 40th anniversary and Donna's 40th anniversary of her 20th birthday. We loved Venice and were on our way home. As I walked out of our B & B I looked down the street as Donna headed home and thought this is a place we have to come back to.

It was a foggy morning. I hope I can capture the feelings: Happiness at the best trip to our new favorite city. Sadness that all good things come to an end. Hopefulness that we'll be back again someday.

About Me

My photo
My name is Bob Shepherd, but when I paint I'm known as "Shep". I love to paint people. Happy people. Sad people. People dancing. People in contemplation. Old people. Young people. Lately I've gotten into painting new things and I'm enjoying the challenge. Flowers and still life's have been fun. My blog is here to show you what I'm doing and how I'm doing it. If I'm doing your commission you can follow the progress of your "PortraitbyShep". If you'd like me to do your portrait please notify me through the blog. Please enter your email above and I hope you enjoy the blog. Shep
