Painting Cinque Terre with Artist Niki Gulley

9" x 12" Textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

After my husband, Scott Williams, and I completed our research for our Art Trek we'll be leading next year to Cinque Terre, Italy, we had a little extra time to paint and photograph. So, today I set up my easel near the beautiful Vernazza harbor to capture the soft morning light. Listening to the ocean waves lapping on the shore was so cathartic and I love the colorful village across the way. If only we painted our houses that vibrantly in the U.S.! I hope you, too, are transported to this peaceful, uplifting setting.
