(Ahem, your last entry is a great one, but a year old? C'mon, man!)<br /><br />And Jeanne, let us both go to Florence. Heck, we maybe should move in with Martinho -- he has one of the coolest flats that I have seen there. And the art one can make in that space -- oh la la. <br /><br />OK, I will quit razzin' <br /><br />I, too, am interested to see how the "no bus, no taxi" rule will work. There are so many businesses 'in centro' that deliveries (only permitted for a few hours in the mornings, although, as a street painter, i saw too many times how that was ignored) and heavy shoppers might get deterred. Also, after having an art exhibit in the drive restricted zone, I cannot imagine even MOVING my living quarters inside without the aid of a taxi. <br /><br />One step at a time . . . <br />Thank you for reading and I love hearing opinions about the art - freely spoken even.<br /><br />Ciao, ciao!Kelly Borsheim Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07069782765023276614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617067506355835944.post-82801670259325841362009-10-25T00:12:31.415+02:002009-10-25T00:12:31.415+02:00The sculpture is horrible.The sculpture is horrible.Off the Coast of Utopiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025320647237757184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617067506355835944.post-39488609934716546682009-10-24T21:20:59.603+02:002009-10-24T21:20:59.603+02:00I'm with you.

Of course, seeing it in person could change that. <br /><br />It's interesting that you mentioned the Piazzo Duomo is going pedestrian. We have a street here in Raleigh that has been changed back and forth at a cost of millions now. Even then, they could not settle on allowing "contemporary art" for the mall area. It has been quite the controversy and has been going on almost as long as we have lived here. Can't wait to see how it turns out. <br /><br />I can tell you really want to be back in Florence. I don't blame you. I am such a gypsy that I would never settle down if I did not have to have a place to keep a studio. Who knows? Someday I might get serious and learn to really paint or do something that does not require so much different "stuff." At least I will have your report to keep me from dumping everything and traveling!Jeanne Rheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13005420371983456968noreply@blogger.com
