Looking through my sketchbooks and albums I realised just how many sketches and paintings I have from Sicily. I am so lucky to live on such a beautiful island and have endless possiblities and inspiration on my doorstep.
I love to get in my car and become a tourist for the day or a guide as sometimes happens. there is always something new to discover even if I have visited the same place several times before.
I will be sorting out and putting these little sketches and paintings into an ebook, perhaps adding a few new ones to my collection too.

I really enjoy seeing your watercolor paintings of Sicily!
I love that window. Is it pencil, pen, and watercolor?
It's pen and watercolour Melissa.
Thank you for the comments :-)
Gorgeous! I especially love that little shoreline/cove piece. I always love visiting Sicily through your work!
I always enjoy seeing your work - especially your beautiful blue skies, when it is grey and dull here!!
Lovely sketchbook pages. I especially like the painting of the shuttered window and the angle you chose to view it from. I'll be in Venice and Siena with a group of painters in May, any suggestions of what to see or do? Thanks!
