I recently had a wonderful and very productive (3 painting) day at Guglielmo Vineyards in Morgan Hill. It’s a place I’ve enjoyed painting before and wonderful to take in the changing light from morning through the end of the day. I’ll be signing and varnishing a small 8″ x 10″ oil painting and putting it in my section of finished oil paintings. Here I’m sharing the other two.
Dancing Vines: This 16″ x 20″ is large for me as a pleinair piece. It was very fun to use a big brush and to intentionally create out of my comfort zone.
Vineyard Path: I started this one late in the day and had to move to complete it in the diminishing light. It’s a 9 x 12 painting.
I’ll need to get back to Guglielmo to paint bare vines this winter. They have some lovely old growth sections with beautiful gnarled grapevines that will be fun to capture after the leaves go. And … their petite sarah is pretty wonderful too!
