Roses Galore

Roses Galore
6" x 8"  Oil on canvas on board
$100.00 + $10. s/h


We couldn't get over all of the roses all over Italy.  They were everywhere!!  I've never seen anything like it before.  

This is the one of the buildings in the villa(s) in Tuscany;  our apartment, 4 bedrooms is shown.  Villa Fabronni/Villa Panzalla in San Polo in Chianti.  These were about 45 minutes from Florence.

The pool is surrounded by olive trees, roses, and vineyards

Vineyards and Poppies

Vineyards and Poppies
6" x 6"  Oil
$100.00 + $10. s/h

This is from the last place we stayed in Tuscany.  We moved around to several locations and towns in our three weeks there.  We felt it allowed us to see more and drive less.  Anyway, this old villa (like many in Tuscany) has been turned into apartments (13 in two locations).  There were swimming pools, restaurant, fresh bread delivery in the morning, weddings.  It was a wonderful location in the Chianti region.

I found a little shade under an olive tree.

There were poppies everywhere in Tuscany.  May is a beautiful month in Italy.

This vineyard let the poppies grown right into the vines.  I thought this was so beautiful.  My husband said that you could see how they chose the colors for their flag.

My husband and I are in Tuscany.  It is so much more beautiful than I had imagined!!  This is the view from the window of our room in San Donato just outside of San Gimignanao.  I love the never endless patch work feel of all the fields, vineyards, orchards and olive groves.
