    Would it be okay if I try to draw it? I’d like to try a vignette pen and wash.

      Sure. I’d love to see it when finished.

        Thank you! I’ll share if it comes out halfway decent. I’m not very good, but not giving up. 🙂

        So they keep telling me! 🙂 Thank you!

        I was so excited I started drawing after you gave me the okay. I’m going to slap some paint on it and see how it looks.

    Will do! If it comes out half decent I will post it on Instagram and send you the link and of course praise you and link to you.

        Donna, thank you so much for allowing me to do some much needed copywork using your image as my muse! You can see what I painted this morning on my Instagram page here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BVXXFCpBcW0/?taken-by=dmzajac2004

        Love it! The painting looks great. I can see why you were inspired by the photo – it made for a lovely vignette. Great work!! Many thanks for mentioning my blog in your Instagram post.

        Thanks Donna! It’s my pleasure to direct people to your lovely blog, and image! I had fun drawing and painting from your image. I may try it one more time to try to improve my skills. I love architecture; especially cathedrals, and would love to be able to sketch in plein air one day.
