Ready for Wine and More

 


This is another piece painted on Yupo paper depicting grapes. I'm facinated by them and realize it's because my parents had a grape arbor in our yard. I loved riding on a swing so my Dad hung one under the grape arbor. In the summer, as a young child I spent lots of time happily swinging to and fro in the cool shade of the grapes. Then I would watch my mother work so hard to prepare and preserve the grapes for juice and jelly. It was a messy, ardous process but we got to enjoy grape juice all winter and were able to slather homemade grape jelly on our waffles and sandwiches. Delicious.
