Day three hundred and two: Encouraged by the response I received for yesterday’s sketch, I decided to try the same scene in pastel. Ha! It took seemingly forever. Of course, since much of the complicated architecture is mirrored in the water, I had to make everything twice. And upside down. So in the end I rapidly filled in missing elements with a very sketchy hand. But at least this time I’ve captured a sense of the magical colors I saw in Padua exactly one year ago on October 29, 2010.
