“The initial process of creating a painting is most exciting; it’s when I use everything I’ve learned, plus raw inspiration, to compose—always hoping I have discovered my greatest masterpiece,” says artist June Carey. Of this new suite of sketches for Dona di Natura she adds,“The ever changing light of the Tuscan landscape, intertwined with the elusive charm of ancient culture drives my quest to capture it. But one painting never can. Perhaps the richest experience is to see many together, letting the images evolve in your imagination, as they do in mine.”
