Sunlit Vineyard, oil on canvas, 8x8"
I finished this painting early this morning. It is for another donation, this time for LVA, Louisville Visual Art Association. So far, as I wind my way back into the world of painting, I have turned down many commission but not donations. I feel as if there are too many expectations that I would not fulfill within myself with commissions. Donations on the other hand are fun and less pressure.
This vineyard, in the reference photo, was bathed in light. I hope I pulled this off. The subject matter is near and dear to my heart so it was natural that I gravitate to them constantly.
By the way, the LVA's annual Art[squarted] event will be held April 9 at their new location in the Historic Portland neighborhood of west Louisville. I missed the deadline last year so am thrilled to participate and offer this painting for sale. All artist contribute an 8x8" canvas, are anonymously hung in the gallery space and are priced at $100. Please save the date, buy a painting; your donation will contribute to funding the Children's Free art classes sponsored by LVA!
Thanks to the staff at this place for making our event so enjoyable and if I ever get married. I know where to go! Great job all of you. Price was not too bad, considering the quality of food and beverages. Everything at venues in Los Angeles was excellent.
