This Way to the Vineyard 18x24 Original Watercolor Painting
While traveling through Virginia we came upon a sign that read Greenwood pointing to a country road which we decided to explore. We saw rolling hills with distant farms and about 2 miles in we came upon a beautiful vineyard. The next day we followed the scenic Skyline Drive and saw more spectacular scenery. Virginia is even more beautiful than I had imagined. I have included images of the paintings progress for those who may be interested. Even though it cannot be seen in the photo, the vineyard is just around the bend so I took artistic license and painted it as I envisioned.

Joyce, I love your art. I read the article about you in Watercolor Artist and it inspired me to take a class thru the City on watercolor painting.I am loving it and think of you and how you inspired me to take up a hobby I always wanted to do but never thought I could. My husband and I love the vineyards in California and someday hope to paint them. Thank you for showing the progress of this painting. It gives me hope that sosmeday I might be able to do this also. Regards, Tina
