Acrylic on canvas paintings

  
These paintings are both worked from photos my daughter in law, Carla, took on a mission trip to Italy last year.  The canal one is 24" by 36" and the vertical bridge scene is 20" by 24."  It's been fun for me to experiment with acrylics again.  Instead of framing I painted around the edges of the gallery wrapped canvas.  It takes a little more time on the first stages of underpainting, but doesn't require much detailing.
