Greatest of the Grape 2009

Greatest of the Grape 2009

I was chosen to create the painting for this year’s Greatest of the Grape Poster. The theme for this year is “Sip into Spring” so I went with a lighthearted piece. It is a step away from my normal painting style, but I had fun with it.

I will be one of 10 artists displaying artwork at the event. For those of you unfamiliar with the Greatest of the Grape event, it’s an evening filled with the best wines around and wonderful food.  Here is an excerpt about it…

Each March, the Umpqua Valley and Southern Oregon showcases the wine industry at Oregon’s oldest wine celebration, the Greatest of the Grape.

Again this year on March 21, we will again delight the senses with wine and food pairings from 28 of the best wineries and 14 regional restaurants in southern Oregon.

This annual event wil be held at Seven Feathers Hotel and Casino Resort in Canyonville on Saturday, March 21 from 7pm to 11pm.

Featured at the festive evening is a People’s Choice award for wine and wine/food pairings as well as announcements of the professional judging of the wine that will be held several week previous to the event. For more info click here.
