Laundry Day in Venice
Original watercolor by Christiane Kingsley

I painted this from my own reference photo taken in Venice. This is the most humble door I had seen in Venice, but I was really attracted by the shadows under the clothesline…

I’ve been meaning to pop in on your blog Christiane, but have been on the computer very little – i trust you understand.
Your painting is beautiful, and there is much beauty in simplicity, even in the ordinary such as laundry.
Your colours glow!
I also love the title!
Congratulations on the painting and the feature!
