Antonio Basilo

Who? One of the amazing thing about travel is that one gets to know about obscure artists. He was an artist, painter and journal writer. I love to see people's journals, their quick sketching and their thoughts. These are pictures from 3 years ago when I took my 2 neices to Italy. This was at an exhibition in a museum in Bologna. There were stacks and stacks of this man's journals, his paintings and all his work. He was so prolific in his work. I loved it. I only wished I could have spent more time there. This was also the trip when I saw Paul Morandi's work. He was another incredibly prolific painter. This was another very informative and inspiring trip.
