SIENNA - FROM SALAMI TO D'UOMO






Best Sandwich of my entire life:

salami, pecorino fresco, fresh bread!

Other pictures are of us throughout Sienna!

Ciao!





These are the pictures from florence. The first is us in this amazing church called Santa Croce. We climbed to the top of it and had the most amazing view of the whole city.

The next set is black and white pics from our hostel. Since we got the vibe that we were in a shady, creepy place, we took shady, creepy pictures. It just fit the mood. I think they're hilarious.

FLORENCE - FOOD



I had the best pasta of my life in florence. And it was only primo piatto! (First Course)

It was ravioli in a gorgonzola cheese sauce. THEY WEREN'T LIGHT ON THE CHEESE!

It had a somewhat crispy yet perfectly cooked texture, and the cheese sause was as thick as it should be. I mopped up with the entire bowl with freshly baked florentine bread!

Then I had steak. Enough Said.

Another Apple Sketch


Here's another apple - a little bit more complicated. Different angle, 2 light sources, and it's got a big bite taken out of it. Check it out! I tried even harder to focus on the tone.

More Sketches, Im gettin there very slowly!



Heres 2 new sketches. The apple was homework.

The other is a sculpture drawn at an odd angle below and behind it.


New pics







Here's some pics from the Trevi fountain!






I threw a coin in in the second picture; its right after I threw it. You're supposed to throw the coin with your right hand over your left shoulder. The first coin means you'll come back to Italy; the second, that you'll find your true love here; and the third, that you'll get married and stay here.






Don't worry Mom, I only threw in one coin.









Ciao!

NEW SKETCHES




Today was a longgggg day on an excursion for my sketching class. I produced three pretty cool sketches. One was a group project; that's the one in color. For that one we had 3 other partners and each worked on the same drawing for 12 minutes. I used the charcoal for that one. The other two pictures, one is in charcoal (fountain) and the other is in Ink wash (india ink with pen and brush).

I'm trying hard!
