Cafe Venezia, on San Marco. I start all of these with a light pencil drawing, and erase the lines after the ink is dry. I'm debating what color ink to paint it in with. I usually do my ink drawings in monochrome, but the coloring of my original photo (below) is really quite striking.
FW acrylic ink -- Antelope Brown; Biro Leonardt #30 nib on Portofino watercolor paper, made in Italy.

If you're wondering how I took a photo without oodles of poorly dressed tourists on San Marco in July, well, I didn't. I took three photos standing in the same spot, and composited them together to get rid of the people.
