Tuscany...is this place for real? YUP!!

Stunning Tuscany

The Tuscany region of Italy is a stunningly amazing plein air artists dream. It’s everything one can imagine and more. We’ve all seen movies, photos, the YouTube videos and blogs but nothing, NOTHING comes close to being there. Visually it is overwhelming with colors and light and textures all hitting you at once. Then, while taking in a deep breath, your senses awaken to a freshness and a feel that wakes the artists in you. I was quite fortunate to visit the area and in particular the town of Peccioli in 2026. My friends and family back in the U.S. are quite fortunate I came back.
