São Bento do Sul
This is the second picture painted here, plein air.
When I travel in the interior of Santa Catarina I feel that I'm in another country altogether: an extremely conservative place. On the Sunday I arrrived it seemed everything in São Bento do Sul was closed and I ended up eating lunch in a pseudo-Alpine tourist restaurant. And then there is a that provincial slowness...
The town has many winding roads which go up and down and is most confusing to navegate. It has many Germanic style buildings. And most of it is well maintained without grafitti or mess. There is a gigantic white cathedral, in a sort of Art Deco, perhaps, on a hill above the town: closed on a Sunday!
