Last year a friend and I drove 3000 miles across France. Amid all the wonderful scenery one abiding memory is the bright, light greens of the vines. I don't know what I'd expected, but certainly not lines of almost lime green traversing the hillsides and valleys.
Katherine has captured perfectly that amazing colour and also the atmosphere of heat and sunshine using coloured pencils in, what I'd describe as, a very painterly way. This is a perfect reminder of my travels. Thankyou Katherine.

It's also a memento of a particularly arduous walk in the heat back from the market in Bedoin - which we'd timed badly. Robyn was dead right - we should have gone a lot earlier!
This was a very welcome sight as I knew I was in the home straight
lovely one Katherine - it reminds me of the vineyards in Malta
Well it is beautiful and seems well worth your efforts. You have captured the day perfectly!
I feel the warmth coming out of this beautiful postcard.
I'm qualified to say, that's exactly how beautiful it was! :)
Beautiful Katherine. Oh to be there and experience these views is on of my dreams. Maybe when I grow up I can do all I want to do. Keep playing the lottery everyone.
So beautiful, it really radiates with the heat of summer. Love the composition!
