Farewell
Tiger Mosquito!
It has been fun to memorialize our experiences with these enormous dive bombers (the drawing is to scale). I was happy to sell many prints of my Zanzare Tigre to faculty and students. Chuck was my "artist agent" for the evening and with a handful of euros in our pocket we were able to enjoy a wonderful medieval dinner at Taverna Del Duca - a community "sagra" of grilled and roasted meats, risotto, desserts that were cooked and served by the townfolk. Now I know where crab feeds, spaghetti feeds and all those wonderful seasonal community endeavors got their start. This one, however, goes on every night for fifteen days!
Farewell Corciano! The students leave Wednesday and we'll drive circuitously back to Rome (via some new to us hilltowns and perhaps even find the Prada Outlet) on Thursday. Home to San Francisco with paintings, prints, books and memories to last a lifetime. We will leave some supplies here with the hope, prayer and toss of a coin in the Trevi Fountain that we will return.
