Plein Air Painting in Italy with Niki Gulley

"Chianti Trail" ©2012 Niki Gulley

SOLD • 30" x 15" pastel

I was commissioned to paint this vineyard and rolling hills backdrop based on my collectors' fond memories of Tuscany. So, using some of my plein air sketches, photographs, and personal memories from our trips to the area, I created this pastel. Full of color and movement, I arranged the planted grapevines to lead your eye back to the Tuscan villa and then to the beautiful countryside beyond.
