Art retreat is over and I am at the winery painting all by myself enjoying a glass of wine from a dear friends winery...

It's the start of my encaustic/mixed media dog series...having the garden next to our retreat art space might have been the reason for the "floral influence" in all of my work this week! @quivira_vineyards #artretreat #encaustic #encausticmixedmedia #quivirawinery #biodynamicfarming #biodynamicgardens #beeswax #painting #layers #texture #maltipoosofinstagram @bear_perfectdog #drycreekvalley #healdsburg #sonoma #lovetopaint #openartretreats (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

I call this painting "Gianna". You can't go wrong with such a beautiful model! @quivira_vineyards #artretreat #encaustic #encausticmixedmedia #beeswax #carving #vandykebrown #vineyard #drycreekvalley #healdsburg #sonoma #lovetopaint (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

Just a fun little study featuring our La Follette winemaker sporting a new, sassy haircut. One of my favorite pictures that I have taken all summer. I call this "Simone"...#encaustic #encausticmixedmedia @quivira_vineyards @lafollettewines #sassy #haircut #rocksit #classic #bold #beautiful #sonoma #sebastopol #healdsburg #drycreekvalley #lovetopaint (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

This piece started with a picture of a burnt pan, lots of drips and flower remnants. I love what has happened with the over all composition, but I am still baffled with the flower theme... #artretreat @quivira_vineyards #encaustic #encausticmixedmedia #oilpaints #botanicals #flowers #beeswax #paintwithwax #silkpattern #lovetopaint #drycreekvalley #healdsburg #sonoma (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

Some of my work from today's art retreat @quivira_vineyards. I am so fascinated with mixed media and having our gardens at the winery as a source was just too tempting. I don't normally have florals in my work, but today's work had nothing but flowers!

It only took a holiday for our pigs to come out and party! First time that I have seen all of them out together all summer. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! @quivira_vineyards #winerypigs #biodynamic #drycreekvalley #healdsburg #sonomavalley #holiday #pigsofinstagram #vineyard #lovethesummer (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

Unexpected detour on our morning walk. Nothing like cooling off in the biodynamic pond in front of our Farm/Garden manager...sorry about that! @quivira_vineyards #uhoh #againsttherules #biodynamic #pond #biodynamicgardens #perfectbalance #winerydogs #justcoolingoff #labsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogsofdrycreekvalley (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

Y'all know I love my cows. I am not sure what to call this one. I met her on the way up to our Goat Trek vineyard. She was so content, let me get close and sort of smiled at me. Waiting game to do a glaze and the I am done... @quivira_vineyards #oilpainting #oilpaint #vineyard #animals #contrast #shadows #texture #lovetopaint (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)

It's been a busy day at the vineyard....4ml walks, 2 trips to the creek, 2 dips in the biodynamic pond (which is a big no no), multiple balls thrown from the back deck...

Whenever I come to the winery I am greeted by our resident pup, Chico... He just lets me know who is in charge. Normally, he is head honcho around Quivira except when I show up with my crazy dogs! This pastel is Chico mid bark. I have always loved this picture of him and decided that it should be my first painting of the summer. Love you Chico and thanks for putting up with us! @quivira_vineyards #winerydog #dogsofinstagram #drycreekvalley #pastel #quivirawinery #dailypainting #lovetopaint #summer #healdsburg #homeawayfromhome (at Quivira Vineyards And Winery)
