"Reverence" In Progress

"Reverence" work in progress, oil, 36"h x 36"w, ©Jill Banks 2014

I painted outside this church in La Morra, Italy this Summer never really thinking about taking a look inside until two of my workshop students told me I should.

Moral of the story: When in Italy, and probably most places, see a church ... go inside.

I am thankful for all of you!  Thank you for encouraging me on this art journey!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.
