Ahh!…the gelati in Viole; I remember them well before the final 2 Km to Assissi where we’ll visit tomorrow.

Mosaic Fan 3.6.15

Serendipidy in the studio.

After I had taken down yesterday’s Italian Reverie pieces from the wall today the mosaic and palette strips suddenly presented the image of a fan to me, demonstrating how the creative process so often happens at a subconscious level and leaves one wondering now where did that come from?

Ah yes! I remember. Lost again on the way back to Siena, but we made it in time to do the laundry at the lavanderia in the Plaza del Campo before returning to the Ostello Guidoriccio and a late supper at the superb Ristoranti Fontebecci next door. I had a spectacular grilled whole fish and when we returned to the restaurant one year later on our second visit to Siena, the same waiter looked at me for a moment and then said, “Whole fish“. Amazing!
