a swiss tuesday...

sketched the riva san vitale city hall building...the white walls washed in light...the delicate connections between archways...the minimal ornamentation...the purity...the freshness...the warmth and glow within the courtyard.

lunch. salad and pasta cooked al dente!

after lunch. sketched the baptistery added a wash of watercolor. swiss boy about 10 years old came over and told me he liked my sketch, but in italian so i proceeded to explain to him that i only spoke un poco italiano.  turns out the boy's english was really good

after after lunch. picked up some swiss chocolate with lindsey

after after after lunch. wine and appetizers in the garden with the swiss ambassador, the mayor of riva san vitale, lucy ferrari, and others. more thought on this subject later
