24"x48", oil on canvas, Private Collection (NFS)This fantasy view of a vineyard-filled valley is a combination of Italy and California. I just finished, after almost a week of working on it for a few hours each day. It's gonna be a surprise gift for my parents...shhhhh. They remodeled their kitchen with a Tuscan feel. My father loves wine and always wanted to travel to Italy. I've never been to Italy but I've been to Napa Valley in California, so I created this view from my experience, plus a little imagination. If you enlarge this image you can see little houses on the distant hillsides. Those houses, as well as the estate house, are all Italian style houses with terra-cota roofs.
