Cartão Postal A Festival of Grapes

Grapes - red, green, blue and purple on a background of gold - luscious and ready to be picked from the vine. This piece was created using an impasto technique, an Italian word that describes a painting style where colors are laid on one layer at a time. This adds depth and dimension and a real feeling of texture. In this piece, the viewer often feels he or she can just reach right through the grapes in front and pluck one right off the vine
