We are traveling next week in advance of the Thanksgiving holiday, so I am limiting my sizes in the studio to avoid having a half-finished or unresolved painting when we come home.
Here is a little 9×12″ painting of the Val d’Orcia , set high up on an olive grove. The scene then slopes down to a Tuscan farmhouse and then back up to the hillsides beyond.
“Benvenuti in Toscana”
Oil on Canvas, 9×12″

I plan to do a few smaller works like these over the next while to serve as studies for possibly larger scaled paintings. I liked the idea of undulating rhythm as this painting leads the eye up and down the hillsides. And while I am happy enough with it on a small scale, I’m undecided if I will attempt it in a larger rendition. For now I think I will move along to one of the other compositional ideas that I have cooking. Hopefully I’ll have more along that line by week’s end.

Beautiful painting Jennifer. I especially love the trees in this one. Your paintings have a wonderful quality of allowing one to transcend over time and oceans to a beautiful landscape that makes me want to go there. Thankfully I am able to be there vicariously through your work. Thank you!
Wow, thanks so much for the nice comments! Painting transports me. I am happy to know that I can convey a little of that feeling to others as well. More of that Tuscan sunshine will be coming your way very soon.
