PERSONAL SKETCHBOOK page 4
  This is St. Peter's, Vatican City. This was a very quick sketch to capture the essence of the open space in front of St. Peter's. Now when I see images of the Pope addressing the audience on Easter, I'll picture him standing in the window of the portico in the middle of the building. I was there the week before Easter and workers were setting up chairs in this piazza. This was drawn from a postcard on the flight home.

Rome is an incredible city. This is the Tibre River with beautiful arched bridges. Everywhere you look the horizon is dominated by domed roofs of cathedrals throughout the city. There are beautiful bells ringing throughout the day. An artists paradise!
