Cinque Terre Plein-Air Painting Workshop with Niki Gulley


"Adrift," Cinque Terre, Italy ©2011 Niki Gulley
SOLD • pastel 36" x 24"


Inspired by our trip to the Cinque Terre (or translated, 5 lands) along Italy's west coast, "Adrift," shows one of the peaceful harbors among these 5 cities that hug the shoreline and are linked by an exhilarating hiking trail. I liked the lone boat anchored in this cove, leading your eye to the beach, and the contrast of the yellow against the crystal blue waters. The buildings, all brightly painted stack miraculously up the mountains in the distance, and create a colorful backdrop suggesting you are no longer in the United States. Cinque Terre is simply breathtaking!
