Vineyards are my favorite landscape scenes. It's the rows of the plants that captures me and are a pleasure to paint. And this one is by the sea, another favorite place although I haven't been to the ocean in quite some time.
This piece was painted in response to the Virtual Paintout challenge. The reference image was found on Google maps on the island of Jersey which sits off the coast of Normandy, France and southern Great Britain. If you want to see a beautifully landscaped island with some amazing architecture, this is one to check out!
