Day 5 of Greece Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams

 

 
Day 5, Greece Art Trek:  Akrotiri and the Red Beach, Santorini

5″ x 7″ textured acrylic painting by Niki Gulley

On the fifth day of our Plein Air Painting and Photography Workshop in Greece, we visited Akrotiri, the remains from a Minoan civilization preserved during the volcanic eruption from the 16th century BC. The ancient city was fascinating. The beach next door also made for a beautiful, relaxing painting location!  I loved this church nestled into the cliffs, so typical on the Greek islands.

That afternoon, we headed to a Santorini winery and sampled the local wines. Yum!

 
Taking a little time out to enjoy the view and sample the Greek wines, which are quite tasty!
