Daily Sketch No.43 Molazzana in the Rain, Tuscany

On the other side of the valley is the village of Molazzana which has good views of the valley and mountains behind Barga. What was interesting as I walked around the village was the amount of houses that had smoke coming from the chimneys. It is nearly May and people are lighting their fires to keep warm! Just shows you how unseasonally cold the weather has been. I sketched this view of the village looking from the cemetery in the car with the window open but rain managed to leak onto the paper (see the water marks in the sky area) but at least it is appropriate!
