Writing -Wanderlust and Wonderlust

I’ve got another website!

This one is dedicated to another one of my creative loves – writing.

What do I write about? I’ve subtitled the blog’s name as “Wanderlust and Wonderlust” and plan to write about my experience with everyday awe, as I move through the world. As I’ve only just started, I’m taking it a step at a time, so we’ll be going on this journey together if you follow me there.

I hope you do!

Ciao,

Marion

In Tuscan Fields

Over the years I’ve painted a number of scenes featuring sunflowers, and they’ve all been snapped up quickly. People love sunflowers! It’s quite a testament to this plant that it […]

Venice’s Magic

It is always assumed that Venice is the ideal place for a honeymoon. This is a grave error. To live in Venice, or even to visit it, means you fall […]
