In the last of our series about the endless scenes to paint at our Watermill locations, we head for the hills! Gina Shearston‘s montage below captures the atmosphere:
Today’s location is the 1000-year-old hilltop village of Monte dei Bianchi, with the stupendous Apuan Alps, the marble mountains of Carrara, in the background. We saunter through the timeless village, painting in archways or on the church green, or we paint the valley villages and the mountains from the gardens of the Al Vecchio Tino restaurant, where we enjoy a gourmet lunch.Look (Creative writers, knitters and language-learners also go to Monte dei Bianchi on Fridays for a little sightseeing and a lovely lunch.)
