"Nestled In the Italian Hills" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting

 Amazing to me but true, this is my 600th blog post.  That is simply incredible, I didn't realize I had been writing and showing my art works this much but I must say, this fact makes me pretty happy!  The travels with my husband and my children have inspired me greatly and, of course, the skies and the flowers have contributed mightly, as well!

"Poppies Among the Greek Ruins at Paestum" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting

 Several years ago we travelled to Italy and visited a more southern region.  It took a while to reach Paestum, but the drive was worthwhile, as we were able to walk around ancient Greek ruins, still standing to a degree.  And, yes, of course, there were the wild red poppies!  What a delight!

"Poppies at Paestum (Italy)" by Karla Nolan, original watercolor and ink painting

 Located in the southern part of Italy are ancient Greek ruins and, what else, poppies growing near them!  They are a marvelous site to see, the combination of blue skies, cypress, the actual Greek ruins surrounded by field stone walls, and the bright red poppies, seemingly unfazed by history long gone by.  Visit this extraordinary site if you can, you won't regret it.
