Colors of the Mediterranean

My brush can never be faithful to the beauty of the Mediterranean colors,  its waves and certainly not the power of its music. I attempted to capture just its colors at sunrise and the result was a mosaic on ceramics.

A green touch

This set contains details  normally found in Italian ceramics. My first encounter with beautiful, hand painted ceramic was in  Tivoli, a historic town about 30 km east of Rome in Italy.  I kept a minuscule yellow, blue and white ring bowl from my teen years that reminds me of this fascinating country and culture. Once I started making this set, details started pouring. Inspiration finds its way... always!

City at sunset

I was wandering about the streets of downtown Chicago when the new and the old brought back images of my hometown Beirut. It's the city feel that stays in my heart. It's the eye  watching the city  from a balcony. This is one still angle that misses the vibrance and the action visible to my eye even in this tranquility. sold

Flowers and vines

Unusual choice of colors for me.The inspiration came from  my Melbourne courtyard. Bright skies, happy thoughts.

Fruity colors of the summer
