Welcome to (Seeing) Venice!

Greetings, intrepid travellers and artists -
Greetings, envious/curious friends and supporters  -

This blog will be our collaborative online record of two amazing weeks of drawing, learning, being in and Seeing Venice.
All students involved in the La Trobe College of Art and Design tour are warmly encouraged to contribute words and pictures, and anyone curious is welcome to follow our progress, discoveries, funny stories, frustrations and surprises; pore over our drawings and photos, and leave comments.

While the tour will be largely experienced by the group as a whole, we will be creating temporary homes in separate accommodation; finding our own favourite places to eat, look at and be in; our own favourite fruit sellers, vino purveyors and Biennale exhibits. We will be feverishly dedicated to our unique visual journals, understanding the city from different perspectives, Seeing Venice in our own ways.
For this reason I think it is important that this record have more than one voice.

Touring students can post to the blog via email:
The subject header becomes the title.
The email content becomes the main body of text.
Images (such as photos of your journal pages!) can be attached to the email and will appear on the blog.

I will be maintaining the blog regularly, and can edit posts if necessary.

I look forward to watching it grow!

Honor.
