Happy 50th Birthday to Yellow Submarine


I have very happy memories of seeing Yellow Submarine when it first came out in movie theaters.  And have had many smiles over the years thinking about the blue meanies.  So it was lots of fun to turn the cartoons into pen and ink drawings to honor the occasion.  

Enjoy!

Burano 2


I thought it was a good time to post another set of photos of the houses on Burano.  

They are so colorful and cheery.  

It really is a magical island.  

By the way, I have not messed with the colors in these photos on Photoshop.  

It really does look like this. 

They are also known for lace making.  

But I found that was a bit of over sell. 

There were a few old women scattered about the stores demonstrating the art, but if memory serves the lace on sale was not local.  

It would have been too expensive.  

It doesn't really matter though.  You should go to see the houses and take a day off from shopping.

Here's a former Burano blog...
Cheers!
