Camilla knew she was meant to be an artist when she arrived at Comic Con International in 1998 and saw the clouds part and heard the angels sing. How’s that for realizing your destiny?
Artist Camilla d'Errico is a product of her split heritage, Italian and Canadian rolled into one: Italian feistiness, Canadian politeness, and an early addiction to Saturday morning cartoons, comics and manga. Growing up she was more often doodling sexy damsels and dragons on her textbooks rather than reading them. Today she is following her dream of working creatively for a living thanks to her relentless energy, dedication, and just enough sleep deprivation.
What drives Camilla d'Errico to create? It’s a love for what she does – an unremitting devotion and a strong resolve to succeed.
Never regret what you do but regret what you don't. If you’re passionate about it – don’t hold back and go for it. - Camilla d'Errico
Art is most often a labor of love as many artists know. There’s an unexplainable, driving force deep within every artist that compels us to create. If we’re ever stripped of the opportunity to explore our imaginations or deprived of the time we need to record our dreams and bring them to life, we become empty and fragile, frustrated and angry. All creative souls understand.
Many of us have an understanding of what it takes

To read the blog and the comment yourselves, click here: http://venetiancat.blogspot.com/2008/12/venice-underwater-eyewitness-report.html I don't particularly like to answer "Anonymous" comments because I like to look my enemies in the eyes. But, Dear Anonymous, in honor of the Aqua Alta tonight (strangely coinciding with your comment), I will make an exception. I did not take a single photo. I think our mayor was a tad upset -- and rightly so -- and I was supporting him because it is not very pleasant to vacation in any area on this planet during an emergency. And I think the photographers came from all over the world to record the event, since when I did the live webcam interview for SKY TV, they told me they had contacted me because the Venice flooding was a top story on the Internet. I merely used existing photos found on the web (giving credit where it was due), taken by people with cameras, as I have no camera of my own. I did say, however, that I became upset when tourists were photographing me as I trudged through the high water from the gym. Honestly, I felt as if I were an animal in a zoo. In my later blogs, after the emergency had passed, I believe I strongly encouraged tourists to visit. 
(Venice, Italy) Let's start with this new comment by "Anonymous" in case any of you miss it, since it was posted on an old blog just a bit after the three alarm siren went off tonight.

you will see The Prince was scheduled to meet with The Pope today, and indeed he did. This from ANSA:
(ANSA) - Rome, April 27 - Britain's Prince Charles on Monday presented his wife, Camilla, to Pope Benedict XVI in his first papal audience since his divorce, the death of Princess Diana and his remarriage. The royal couple spoke to Benedict for 15 minutes in English and without interpreters, according to the Vatican, discussing the environment among ''several issues of common interest''.
So, tomorrow, The Prince is due to come to Venice, and his schedule remains basically as reported before:
On Tuesday the prince will meet with Italian businessmen from the association of industrial employers Confindustria to discuss environmental issues while Camilla pays a visit to the Keats-Shelley Museum at the Spanish Steps.The couple will then leave for Venice, where they plan to visit the restored Fenice opera house.Charles will then join a seminar on preserving the lagoon while Camilla visits the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.In the evening the royals will attend a performance of Donizetti's Maria Stuarda at the Fenice.The couple are due to travel to Germany later in the week.

With all this excitement, I realized I completely forgot to mention that Kathleen Kennedy was in Venice on the same night as the big Salam Hayek-Pinault bash at La Fenice, apparently to drum up support for a branch of Democrats Abroad here in Venice. Sorry 'bout that!
When it comes to the high water tonight in Venice, I am still of the same mind as before -- this has been going on for centuries. It is nothing new. It has to do with solar activity, in combination with lunar activity. Nothing mysterious. Just look up at the sky.
Ciao from Venice,
Cat

By the view from my world-wide webcam, your town looks socked in with grey fog. Yuck. Think I'll go view Honolulu.

Ok. It looks like the sun is out on San Giorgio Maggiore with a heavy overcast sky in the background. Other parts of Europe under clouds. Must be one of those big systems.
The Algarve, Portugal, sunny. That's for me!
Been checking my miles. Between British Air and Northwest/Delta, I've got 18,500. Then there is my 24,670 on Hawaiian Air. MMMMmm. Let me see, overcast Venice, or balmy Honolulu?
If I hung out in Venice, you and I might get too chummy. Can you dance the Hula?
