Oingt, September
40 x 40 cm
£ 600 instead of £800
Oingt, built on its hill top has one tower left from it’s citadel which pairs up with the church, perched on the edge of its rocky outcrop. You can climb to the top for panoramic views and also explore its bottle dungeon, which forms part of the communal gallery space where I have exhibited in the past. This is painting is loaded with memories for me. You can see traces of an earlier painting, one of my very rare abandoned paintings on account of the cold. I had to stop after losing feeling in my hands and feet due to a windchill of about -25 and I didn’t have the right clothes on. Then the painting on the surface was painted from the lane leading to Ste Paule, a tough ascent on a bike and home to some excellent winemakers. The foreground is an abandoned vineyard, always quite a sad sight but visually rich with the old vines and wild flowers taking it back to nature. Louise gave à beautiful recital in the church on the outcrop and we have passed some memorable moments in the ancient honey coloured stone houses that line the lanes that lead up to the top. Oil on canvas 40x40cm Really quite happy if no one to buys this one.
Le Taille 2
27 x 29 cm
£ 800
Taille des vignes, pruning the vines. One of my favourite paintings created in the Beaujolais. The vignerons are truly part of the territory. In this work the landscape, the activity and the winemaker are one.
