I don't think I have ever been as inspired as I am right now to create a group of paintings! I returned from Italy filled with joy, excitement, appreciation, and about 1500 photos all deserving of being translated into Paint.
So my idea for the first round of paintings is to try and capture 6 of the people who made the trip so special for our group. There was Anna, the fabulous chef who cooked for us every day at the Casale...

And Giacomo, the DaVinci Wine ambassador who answered every question, and shared so much of his knowledge of wine with our group. His fabulous smile and warm spirit was so wonderful!

One of the growers, who lives on a plot of land that can only be described as Heaven on Earth

And the hands of the gardener who taught us how to harvest, and also everything that needs to be considered with every cut, every trim. I just noticed all the men are wearing blue shirts...
Two more paintings to get started this week - probably another one of the fabulous growers, and one of the vintners of DaVinci. I'll keep you posted!
The final paintings will be revealed by the DaVinci wine company in November. In the meantime, I hope you come by and visit the studio in November and see them in person!
