The reason everyone dreams of a villa in Tuscany


I was so pleased to receive this enchanting Tuscan miniature by Robyn Sinclair in the mail! Doesn’t it look about as idyllic as your wildest imaginings of fantastic places to live and paint… and garden or, better yet, admire other people’s impressive efforts?  Robyn says the town, Castiglion Fiorentino, is “right in the heart of the breadbasket of Italy.”  Looks like they can provide the makings of a pretty respectable antipasto and something nice to drink with that bread as well!

I think you're right Charlene. Robyn's card matches my imaginings too. What a wonderful place to live.

Great composition Robyn. I can sense the clear air and sunshine. Super!

Robyn Sinclair said...

Thank you all. The actual postcard isn't quite as lurid as it looks.

Ohhh, Robyn, so beautiful. It reminds me of our vacation to Tuscany and our stay at the farmhouse near Multipuciano (sp). I love this and wish I had known you then, I would have visited! Maybe next time!

A year without being in Tuscany for a couple of days is like having dinner without a good glass of wine. Lovely card!

Wonderful! Your card is just my idea of a Tuscany that I could spend the rest of my life.
