Today I was gifted a second beautiful painting ... painted just for me.
Look closely, you’ll see.
I love this city.
I love the people here, and already I’m thinking about the fact that it will be my suitcase rolling along the caruggi here in a few days. I will take some exquisite memories when I leave ... as always.
Anyway, about the photograph of the painting below. It was painted by one of my favourite artists in the world, Amedeo Baldovino. You can read of my first meetings with him over here.
Tonight I had the pleasure of having dinner with both Amedeo and Karla. I do adore them.
Mille grazie, Amedeo! I love the painting. I love that in those Genovese cityscapes you paint, there is a space for this New Zealand photographer who is passionate about books.
