I chose to paint this view of our villa that we stay in during our Tuscany Art Treks, since I'd been admiring it for years. I like how the old stone farmhouse sits high on its hilltop with amazing 360 degree views of the rolling valleys and hill towns. The clouds have been gorgeous every trip we've taken, so I also wanted to convey that beauty in this panorama. Taking a few liberties and adding the sunflowers in place of the pool, "Flowing with Sunshine" is loaded with texture, color and uplifting energy!

That is such a beautiful painting. It would fir perfectly in my house. My husband, myself and a few friends just rented a few villas in Tuscany Italy for 2 weeks next summer. I can't wait to actually see a view like this in person.
