Oil painting of main house in a vineyard in the south of France in the Alpilles region. The entry drive with maritime pine tree in the foreground and the house in the background. Painting is still in progress. It is called "Mas Alpilles"
Small progress on my painting. I am calling it "Mas Alpilles".
A mas is the local name for farmhouse. In this case it is the main house of a winery/vineyard (colours are not quite right):

One of my first paintings in more than 10 years - a repaint of an older painting. Still ongoing. I put some oils over the oil pastels used for the the sketch.
Still several sessions to go. I only manage 1 hour+ per day, but it's a start...

INTRODUCTION TO HOW I MAKE MY ART 101:
