Tuscany inspires artists


This year, for the first time, we offered a painting scholarship to an artist who wanted to experience the beauty of our region of Tuscany. For two weeks Providence RI based Lelia Byron painted and photographed the area while staying at Casa Castigliana. Above is one of seven paintings she made while there. It depicts the view out our bedroom window, which overlooks the garden and the castle on the cliff above. To see more of Lelia’s work, visit her website www.leliabyron.com.
