PROCIDA PALETTE: HERCULANEUM BLUE, NICOSIA AND EMERALD GREENS. “I often paint in the forgotten lemon grove in the walled garden surrounding the Villa Eldorado. Large round Procida lemons, called Limoni Pane or bread-lemons for their thick rind.” Typically awakened by seagulls, her painting sessions often begin at 5:30 a.m., with the view of Mount Vesuvius to the east. “In painting these places with my easel standing next to the cactus on a cliff overlooking the sea.” Lucy MacGillis captures the soul of Umbria and Procida in new works | The Berkshire Eagle
