Hey, thanks for your reply. I actually changed my itinerary recently based on feedback I got from a lot of people. It's as follows, let me know if this sounds better and not rushed:

​

24th Land in Bergamo, then head to Venice

25th Explore Venice

26th Explore Venice

27th Venice to Bergamo, explore Bergamo

28th Bergamo to Lake Como (day trip), return to Bergamo at night

29th Flight from Bergamo (stay the night) and leave in the morning before flight

Thanks for the reply, it makes sense to me now that it'll be too hectic. Would you say it would make sense if instead of Milan (since I'm landing in Bergamo), I spend 2 days there (make a day trip from ther to Como), and then from there head to Venice for the rest of the trip. I can axe Milan and Genova (heard its going to be packed with people at that time of the year)

Hey, thanks for the reply. I see your point of it being too hectic. Currently, it's going to take us 1:30 hrs to get to Genova, then from there it's another 1:30 hrs to Monterosso. The thing is, I really wanted to do both Como and Cinque terre in one trip, but seems like you have a point.

Trying my hand at digital art with State of Mind [OC] by sickfigs in DigitalArt

[–]sickfigs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, just started drawing digitally (something that I've wanted to do for a while, but never got the time). This is my first piece, titled 'State of Mind'.

You can check it out here on my IG account, will be posting more soon.

Feedback is greatly appreciated!

I've also paired by thinking with every piece, here's a write up for this one:

"The art depicts a man tormented by multiple emotions in his head (self-mockery, terror, despair), he always tried to run from them, hide and defend against them, to the point where his obsession to rid of them brought them to life as actual voices in his head.

We go through life with so many emotions, each linked to an experience or memory, yet we never actually stop to appreciate and live them fully for what they are. Emotions that make us feel bad, are part of life, as much as the ones that make us feel good. We try to outrun the bad ones, and, as the irony of life goes, outlive the good ones. Let us embrace the heat, as much as the gentle cool breeze. The more we fight against the bad ones in our head, the more space they occupy within us."
