“This scene has actually been in the works for
several years. I love village scenes and I think this will be the first
of many. I hadn’t planned to include the figures or the dog when I
began. I added the women because I feel that the people are as
beautiful a part of Tuscany as the land and the history. Perso means
“lost” and I usually am lost when I’m there! I don’t know where this
village is—I hope that I can get lost there again sometime and that I
can recognize the place!”
