Painted on location in Burgundy,
France, from the very spot where I
dined daily. Just to the right was in
incredible vista overlook revealing a
breathtaking lush valley below.
Traditional hand-made, gold metal
leaf over wood, linen lined frame.
Artist Reply: Thanks Annette. This location had plenty of atmosphere. Atop a hillside inn where I stayed with my workshop students in France. The air was crisp and delicate for painting.
Artist Reply: Thank you Emily, I had to work hard at Impressionism as I used to paint very tight and realistic. Paintings got tired and stilted-looking. So I pulled-back, loosened-up to try and bring life back into the work.
