I spent two days in Naples on my way to the IV° Naples Urban Sketching
Workshop (which actually took place in Ischia). Naples was incredibly
busy, and it felt quite different from the Italy i knew; i had never
been this far south. The narrow streets of Quartieri Spagnoli
(supposedly not the best neighbourhood) were much calmer than the city
center and were great to sketch. I had various very nice conversations
with locals in my non existent italian while i painted the view below.
There where some beautiful places to explore, especially old book and
antique stores. The weather wasn´t great, but it´s a chance to draw
people with colourful umbrellas. And of course, a panoramic view with
the Vesuv in the background was a must.
