Fast sketch at the the most amazing house I’ve ever been: Villa Rotonda (o Capra) designed by Andrea Palladio. 9b #lyra graphite on #mujinotebook
2181 / Villa Capra / Vicenza
2169 / Piazza dei Signori/ Vicenza
The amazing Piazza dei Sognori, ruled by Palladio’s Basilica. It is so nice to sketch these amazing buildings! 1h50m #staedtlerpens and #pentelbrushpen on #strathmorepaper
1688 / San Giorgio Maggiori // Venice
San Giorgio Maggiori, another of Palladio’s masterwork.
1687 / San Marco / Venice
North facade of the Basilica, Piazza San Marco. Another point of view done by Louis Khan when he was in Venice.
1647 / Amalfi from the Ferry / Italy
Another view of beautiful Amalfi, this time from the boat.
1646 / Chiesa Nuova / Positano
Loved this little alleyway on the back of Chiesa Nuova: full of wires, dirty colors and contrasting forms and shadows.
1645 / Marina Grande / Sorrento
Marina Grande or Sorrento’s beach: loud music, totally packed, a bit smelly, but a funny, colorful and eclectic atmosphere.
1644 / Piazzetta / Castellabate
Having dinner at the piazzetta of Castellabate. This little village was put on the map for being the main scenario of the movie “Benvenuti al Sud”.
1622 / Duomo di Amalfi
I needed 3 sessions to finish this sketch, in order the get the proper light and shadow
1619 / Atrani from the tower / Amalfi Coast
Another sketch done on the same place where Master Louis kahn ,was drawing, back on 1929. It’s so exciting to follow his steps! The manager of the tower restaurant was nice and let me sit on the right (now private) spot.
I would draw every corner of Atrani, love this place. Feel so lucky for being here for hours and seeing how the light slowly changes. every corner is a (pleasant) surprise, sometimes I cannot avoid saying to myself “uau!!”.
Architects and urban planners should learn how simple and amazingly buildings are harmonically adapted to the landscape in such an human scale!
a fresh drawing everyday
