Flashback Friday ~ Venetian Mask Shop

It's time for Photo Flashback Friday here at Focused on the Magic! 

Time to once again dust off our Walt Disney World photo albums and take another look at some of our favorite photos from vacations past. 


If you are new to the Flashback Friday Hop, Welcome! I hope you enjoy your visit. For those returning, Welcome Back! 
Would like to join in on the fun? You'll find out how to at the end of this post. I would love to have you share your flashback photos with us. 



Today is a quick flashback to my solo trip. Quick, because we're having a pretty big thunder storm and the power may go out any minute.
A visit to The Italy Pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase for me always includes a trip to the Venetian mask shop. It's a tiny little shop packed to the rafters with ornately decorated masks. Sometimes you can see the Venetian mask artist Giorgio Lurcotta painting beautiful paper mache masks in the shop.
On this solo trip I was able to spend as much time as I wanted to. That alone is fun enough for me. I truly enjoyed the feeling of stepping back in time while I wandered around *Italy*

Epcot's Italy ~ Venetian Carnival Masks

Carnevale di Venezia Masks Venetian mask Epcot Italy

The Italy Pavilion at Epcot's World Showcase always provides me with fabulous photo opportunities and the Venetian Carnival mask shop, Carnevale di Venezia never disappoints. I really enjoy wandering around that little shop. Usually there's an entertainer outside in the courtyard keeping the family busy while I slip away and explore the shop. The Venetian mask artist, Giorgio Lurcotta can sometimes be seen at work painting his beautiful and mysterious mâché masks
In post processing I used an Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 dry brush to give it the feel of a vintage oil painting. 
Do you enjoy visiting shops in the Italy Pavilion?
