Colorado River, Arches National Park. Watercolor 15" x 11"

Canal, Scali delle Pietre, Livorno, Italy. watercolour 15" x 11"

This watercolor painting captures a picturesque scene of the Canal at Scali delle Pietre in Livorno, Italy. The composition is dynamic, with a strong diagonal perspective leading the viewer's eye from the foreground to the distant bridge. The artist uses vibrant and warm tones, particularly earthy oranges and yellows, to depict the sunlit buildings and canal walls, contrasted with cool blues and greens in the water and shadows.

In the foreground, two silhouetted figures stand near the canal's edge, adding a sense of life and scale to the scene. A "no entry" road sign on the left provides a modern touch amidst the timeless architecture. The canal is lined with small boats, their forms loosely sketched but recognizable, with reflections shimmering in the water below. The bridge in the background arches gracefully over the canal, framed by soft greenery and distant structures.

The painting's loose brushwork and use of light create an impressionistic feel, emphasizing atmosphere over detail. The interplay of warm sunlight and cool shadows evokes a tranquil yet lively ambiance typical of Livorno's historic canals.
