Today's painting is of one of the vineyards we visited on our drive around the Var the other day, the same drive that produced Sweet Chestnut Walk and Cork Sentinels. You can see the Maures in the background. The vines were full of nice juicy grapes. Some of the leaves were turning, so maybe it is close to harvest time. These vineyards produce the delicious Provence Rosé the area is famous for. I painted these vineyards in the autumn last year after the harvest

 I decided to make these a bit more blue then they turned out this year.

This bush has is very old and years ago had blue flowers. It's amazing how the blooms

change color with the acid content of the soil.

Original oil painting Napa Valley vineyard landscape by Karen Tarlton

I always enjoy painting with bright colors and lively strokes of thick oil.

I'm fascinated by the clear California light and arid beauty of the wine country.

Well it's already here - the season of color.

It's chilly today and the leaves are turning gold and already falling from the Mulberry and 

great Oaks in my backyard.

The Dogwoods in the front are turning crimson and getting ready to soon drop too.

Even the vineyards turn glorious colors in October and it's pure joy to see it!

California Vines - Napa Vineyards

Life goes by at such pace.

I wish sometimes it could all be slowed down a bit

and there was so much more time for long strolls

through calm landscapes and sunny skies.

Peaceful landscapes bring a sense of calm I think.
