Tuscany -- Watercolor



I saw this in an art book, and fell in love with this adorable little town. There is something appealing and serene about the Italian countryside. The soft colors also caught my imagination, and I just had to paint it.  This is a real place, but the name of the town was not given in the book.  This was an enjoyable piece to do.
