The merry wives of Venice

Two transcendent girls turned into Venetian graces.

I listened to some Vivaldi tones and Venice got alive.

I recommend "Vivaldi - Four Seasons (Winter) - on YouTube 

I guess, I will have to divide the picture into two parts (or more?) as the lady to the left didn't turn out as I wanted it.

I actually tried to lighten up the picture with a layer of gold on top of the black from the gondola, but that was not enough.

This is the best part of the drawing, I think.

Reading literature

I've started reading "Northern Star" by Stewart Parker, as we are working with Ireland in our teaching training. More precisely we have to prepare a project about Ireland for 9th graders.
Me and my group mate are preparing a cross curricular project including English, History, Religion and Art (of course ;-)).

In my search for material I came across a play by Stewart Parker and as writing a play/acting a play is one of the options for the pupils, I ordered the book: Plays 2 - Northern Star, Heavenly Bodies, Pentecost. I do not expect my pupils to act out the whole play, but they might get some inspiration from this and I really like, what I'm reading. There are many references to the Irish history and that is exactly what we need for the project.

Maybe I will come up with some drawings inspired by the plays?

We'll see...

My husband's favorite drawing so far
