Oil on linen, 30x40 cm (1.0 x 1.3 feet), Artist's collection.To me, the Tuscan paintings have been about capturing light effects. This painting was done in the full noon sun in the hottest part of the day, without shade in my favorite olive grove outside Monteriggione. The temperature was about 38 C or 100 Fahrenheit, but it was worth it. Can you feel the heat?
