From Menekse Guven


'Dalyan, Lycian Tombs & River' by Meneske Guven

This wonderful scene arrived from Menekse yesterday morning along with the explanation that it started as a plein air painting and, due to high wind, soon became a view from the window.

'So what was going to be a happy Turkish family picnic became one man battling the wind with an ever hopeful stray dog!'

Wind or not, it is a beautiful scene, painted with a wonderful depth.

Thank you Menekse!

Plein air painting can be quiet an adventure! Meneske did a lovely job on this.
