Lago Siracusa
Artist
AnnaJo Vahle
Medium
Painting - Oil Paint On Canvas
Description
I moved to Sicily, Italy when I was a young woman. I had only done a few oil paintings in my life. I didn't speak Italian and found it difficult to buy art materials. I was figuring out how to paint with materials marked in various languages. I couldn't find anything in English. This is one of my early oil paintings. I was still learning by myself. I did it plein air near Siracusa. I seem to remember that the trees were Eucalyptus. A local woman was watching me and told me that Mussolini had planted them all over to hide the military when they moved.
The canvas is 35cm by 48cm.

Talent is evident at an early age. Well done. Love the vibrant colors! My history of Mussolini is scant, but I know he came to an unfortunate end hanging from a bridge! FAVORITE
