Paintings of France, Italy and Beyond

More “small stuff” today as I continue preparations for Thursday night’s gallery anniversary party and the First Fridays Art Walk that follows. This little painting shows the setting Tuscan sun over a sloping grove of olive trees .  There is a companion to this little painting that I’ll try to post soon. 

 ”Lingering Light, Tuscany”
Oil on Linen mounted on birchboard
Approx. 3.5″ x 7.75″

It’s an odd size, I know, but I do have a frame for it. It would also look great unframed, just perched on a mini easel.

I am enjoying the long horizontal format I’ve used in these pieces and in my previous painting of Venice. That’s the great thing about making small works–you can experiment with formats and compositions (mediums too) with less sweat, tears, and expense than is sometimes required of a large canvas. And if they don’t work out, they fit into the trashbin  a whole lot easier! I think this one’s a keeper though. ;-)
