Description
Santorini, Greece is a ring-like series of islands which make up a caldera, the remains of a volcanic eruption thousands of years ago. The walls of the caldera are soft pumice-like rock, which the inhabitants carve-out to create their cave homes.
My wife and I were walking through one of the neighborhoods of Oia when I photographed the two homes depicted in this painting. A coating of plaster provides a finished-look for their homes.
This painting is an updated and, I think, an improved version of the painting I did in 2008! The values in the original were too washed out and lacked contrast! So, I corrected the problems on my original.
