Lisbon - View from the Tagus River
Lisboa |
I finished this pastel yesterday. It was painted from a photo I took while crossing the Tagus River on the ferry. I had taken the train from Albufeira to Lisbon. The ticket included the ferry because there was no railroad bridge across the river.
The pastel is 12" X 18" on Wallis sanded paper. I used Pan Pastels, Nu-Pastels, Rembrandt, and Unison pastels plus Derwent pastel pencils.

Adriatic and Aegean Journal
Street scenes photographed while just wandering around the old city of Dubrovnik.
Tweet
Walking along the old city walls. |
Small church built right against the wall. |
Some of the streets become shot tunnels near the walls where there are stairs up to the top. |
All streets running east toward the mountain end in stairs. |
Another narrow street ending in a open plaza. |
The main street that runs from the gate at the harbor to the north gate on the other side of the city. Notice the shine on the marble street. |
