Based on a photograph taken near Tavernelle in Umbria, Italy, this photo art image shows a wonderful collection of cypress trees, interspersed with small golden conifers. The trees line the drive way to a beautiful Italian villa. In late spring, the poppies provide a splash of red and you can almost see the movement in the golden wheat field in the foreground as a slight breeze ripples across the surface. I created this in impressionistic style as it seemed to suit the subject. The countryside in Umbria is idyllic and I wanted to create a piece that really gives full credit to the different shades of green, light and shade that can be seen in late Spring.
