What a treat! Hosted by our friends Giorgio and Lucia we arrived on the eight hundredth birthday of the Duomo, a Cosimato survivor with an original decorated portico, a wooden structure rarely seen today. We gave our first workshop here in fall of 2001 and have been going there ourselves since 1998. We like this place, not only for its ancient associations, but because of the rich artistic history associated with it. By the early 19th century, almost nowhere except Rome was more visited by painters than here. The ancient associations along with scenes of the eroded red tufa cliffs standing almost two hundred feet above the river beds have been drawing artists to this area since the seventeenth century. So even after more than a decade we are still the artistic newbies here. But enough with the chit chat, I want to use this article to show some recent paintings. And I mean recent because these were all made last week.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7pZfKAjOfaXFqIcKSP-rEVwBsRVthS_4mswLsqnJVXSmfPPPPwOLwOdIdCCVfODRjn2zzzADz2aUPNoiaaqkkPPL9AtjPc2amypPpP9YTWxCisW5mOv98S7z462Kke-afKsJTq1XbOiw/s1600/Monte-Sorrate-2010-m.gif"><img style="display:block;
