Today was my first day on the island group that we in America call Santorini. In Greece it is also called Thira. The island is actually a group of islands that surround a caldera . Our hotel is in the town of Fira, but I took a local bus north to Oia to explore the town and look for a painting site for my upcoming workshop. Here are some of my better photos from today's exploration.
Painting is my passion. Travel satisfies my curiosity, adds to my understanding of the world and provides endless subject matter for my paintings. I lead painting trips around the world so I can travel with other painters. Daily painting is how I grow as an artist and how I satisfy my passion for painting. I paint as I travel and I paint in my studio. I do not limit my work to one style, one subject or one medium. Growth comes from exploration. www.sandydelehanty.com

Hi Sandy,
Greece is just beautiful! Sure wish I could be there with you guys. Please say hello to Sylvia, Pete & Kathy for me!
Sandy, beautiful color an artist's' dream. Have a great workshop. Elizabeth
Hi Linda,
Sylvia and Bill were on the Belgium workshop and then we went to France together but they are home now. Sadly Kathy got swine flu in Ireland, and is still recovering so she and Pete did not get to come. Patrick and Angela and I were just talking tonight about how much we miss them. The group is much smaller but we are here with an oil painting workshop and a photography workshop and all are so much fun, we are having a great time. Hope you can join me on another painting trip one of these days. Sandy
