Maybe there already is a finished painting (or a series) of the place you were looking for that you would like to bring home!

Italy

Katja_Schmitt_Toscana_Blues_Pastel_Painting — Toscana Blue(s) | Pastel Painting | 49 cm x 64 cm

While I was working on another painting (“Florenz”), I realised how much time had passed since I was last in Italy – especially in Tuscany. I love Italy. Some people say that the Rhinelanders from this region here aren’t German but Italian anyway ;), and sometimes it feels that way.
‘Fernweh’ surfaced in a big way…. and the result was: “Toscana Blue(s)”.
The painting was not for sale for a long time, because I wanted to keep it close to me, but now I decided to offer it to a new home, and I hope someone will cherish it as much as I do!
