Today Taormina is a major tourist Mecca in Sicily but it was once a place of decadence attracting many artists, writers and bohemians alike, inspired by its isolation, beauty and ancient quality.
In amongst the gaudy tourist stores there are many small artist studios and speciality stores which reflect the creativity and artistry of Sicilians, they are what draw me back here.
Heehee, what a funny little fella! Great photos and post!
Yes he was cute and he was for sale with his other friends in a gallery at Taormina.
Did you buy either or both of them?
Unfortunately not ;-( But it is my dream to one day sell Sicilian art and ceramics to the rest of the world …
OOh, that sounds like it would be really enjoyable! Keep us informed won’t you and good luck!
For sure and thanks so much for your lovely comments, it’s great to have you reading my thoughts. Best to you!
