This is the final painting from my Torres set: Torres is a stunning city, the weather, fantastic sunshine- was wonderful

The experience of larger paper has been exhilarating. .

A drive further south 1: Torres

My trip 

I drove south but I didn't stop in Imbituba on the way back up as originally planned. I drove to Gravatai via Torres and stopped on the way back in Ferrugen.

 The trip was a delight. I had the chance to work on a larger format and discover some new places.

Torres is a small, orderly and beautifully situated town with some wonderful rocks and splendid, if windy, beaches

On the first day the weather was rather wonderful. The second was overcast.

A drive further south: Torres, Imbituba and Gravatai

Florianopolis to Gravatai via Torres

 

A little drive further south- to Gravatai, near Porto Alegre. There are fine rocks in Torres. I will try to stay there and paint.

 Perhaps I will stop in Imbituba too.

Recently, I`ve been bored. I`m always doing the same things, but I can`t think of more enjoyable or better things to do, or new ways to do what I like but am bored of.
