Last October I went to Campriano in Tuscany with a group of American painters specifically to paint plein air (outside) in oils. I came back with half a dozen paintings, some less successful than others. This was the one I liked best, but it didn't quite work as I had hoped. I revisited it recently, strengthened the contrasts in the foreground vines and changed the hue of some of the shadows. It pleases me more now, and reminds me of a good holiday with a great bunch of people. I thoroughly recommend Maddine Insalaco and her painting courses.
