This was created as a color study for a larger piece.  I like to start small and work out color and design before tackling a big canvas.  The location for the inspiration is a farm house in Italy. It was on a drive with Scott Williams and Niki Gulley with Art Treks.  Our first trip with this talented couple.

I loved painting this and adding my own color scheme to the landscape.  My challenge is to take a simple landscape photo and enhance it. Adding the glowing colors of a beautiful sunset made this landscape pop.
