Part of "Everything is goin to be allrigt "serie this small painting 10x10 cm is inspired by "What do you see from your window" group . The series name is "What Do You See From Your Window " and represents views from people windows from all around the world.
I will paint a few small paintings with windows all over the world for a exhibition wich will take place in Roma. Wonderful people, who were as well isolated like me in these difficult times, sent to me photos of what they see from their window. This way, I visited houses from all over the world, through the generosity of my new friends. To share back my gratitude to all the efforts that are made during these uneasy months, I painted the America, Italy, Portugal, South Africa ,Alaska and lots of other marvelous corners of this planet. I am so happy to be part of be pArt project.
Thank you Stacey for the wonderful Photography!

Pensacola (/ˌpɛnsəˈkoʊlə/) is the westernmost city in the Florida Panhandle, and the county seat of Escambia County, Florida. As of 2018, the population was estimated to be 52,713. Pensacola is the principal city of the Pensacola Metropolitan Area, which had an estimated 494,883 residents as of 2018.Pensacola is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the Gulf Coast region, the largest between New Orleans and Tampa.[
Pensacola is the site of the first Spanish settlement within the borders of the continental United States in 1559, predating the establishment of St. Augustine by 6 years, although the settlement was abandoned due to a hurricane and not re-established until 1698. Pensacola is a seaport on Pensacola Bay, which is protected by the barrier island of Santa Rosa and connects to the Gulf of Mexico. A large United States Naval Air Station, the first in the United States, is located southwest of Pensacola near Warrington; it is the base of the Blue Angels flight demonstration team and the National Naval Aviation Museum. The main campus of the University of West Florida is situated north of the city center.
The area was originally inhabited by Muskogean-speaking peoples. The Pensacola people lived there at the time of European contact, and Creek people frequently visited and traded from present-day southern Alabama. Spanish explorer Tristán de Luna founded a short-lived settlement in 1559.In 1698 the Spanish established a presidio in the area, from which the modern city gradually developed. The area changed hands several times as European powers competed in North America. During Florida's British rule (1763–1781), fortifications were strengthened.
It is nicknamed "The City of Five Flags", due to the five governments that have ruled it during its history: the flags of Spain (Castile), France, Great Britain, the United States of America, and the Confederate States of America. Other nicknames include "World's Whitest Beaches" (due to the white sand of Florida panhandle beaches), "Cradle of Naval Aviation", "Western Gate to the Sunshine State", "America's First Settlement", "Emerald Coast", "Red Snapper Capital of the World", and "P-Cola".
