- After dark, Venice can feel
quite eerie and still in the
autumn and winter months.
I love to see the
gondolas moored and
Venice's distinct,
Victorian-looking three-
armed street lamps lighting
up the darkness. Lights seem
to come from the moon to light
up the lagoon in the
background and my
imagination runs riot, fuelled
by the legends that the spirits
of the gondoliers live on. That
is why I pictured a gondolier
in the sky, above the
lagoon. Being a peaceful
scene, I've used smooth
texture and harmonious
colours
