At the water's edge

After I put my daughter down for bed yesterday, I sneaked outside and I sketched the grass and rocks at the edge of the water. It was just starting to get chilly and slightly dark when I went back inside.

a sketch in Villa Borghese, Concetta Flore

A beautiful day, yesterday, in-between rainy days. So I took advantage of the sunshine and went a-sketching with husband and friends at the historic park of  Villa Borghese in my hometown, Rome.This is the "ancient"- XVIII cent. temple built on a small lake where people go rowing.
