After doing a small grape painting in Feb. I searched through my own references for another one of grapevines. I took the reference photo for this in Provence in October. It was the only time I saw grapes on the vine there since the harvest had passed. This is 11 x 15. I did a demo of it that is posted on WetCanvas if you would like to see it. I also explained some of the problems I had doing this one.

Joan, this is so beautiful! I am just in awe, truly!
Anita - Thanks so much.
Holly - Many thanks. I have to really try to do more pieces that I work on slowly like this one.
Mickey - Thanks.
Lin - Thanks for that kind review!
Sherry - Thanks so much. I need to sit down and work on more paintings like this.
Is this yours???! Sorry, I cannot bring myself to click on a WC link, the place is just too awful to even log in. If this is yours, and I guess it is, I don't know why you're spending so much time on those sketch pieces - this is a while different level, and it seems to me you should be spending time on this kind of substantial work. It's great, Joan!!!!! (^^^my opinions only, worth what they cost you)
