Thank you for visiting - this is a testing site for my future website www.michaelspinetta.com

Click below to see other gallery pages - this page is the Grapes Gallery.
_____Grapes Gallery; Leaves Gallery; Rock Walls Gallery; -- these will be links when they're online.

_____Please click each thumbnail or each title to see larger images. Some images have multiple views because the painting has more than one surface to view. Contact me for pricing information and availability. New images appear periodically.

_____W = painting wraps around 4 edges of canvas (not to be framed.) Like this painting. There are five sides to each of these paintings - so only the future owner gets to see what it fully looks like!
_____L = labelled with varietal name on side or front of canvas.

_____Since images wrap around canvasses, placing the piece at a good vantage point on a wall is an impotant consideration when hanging. 5" x 5" x 1.25" pieces display well atop surfaces on occasion. Some pieces are to scale, some are not. Some pieces are shown in an unfinished state - these are indicated with a "U". The pieces have since been finished - I just need to take a new photo. Not all sides of the wraparound paintings are shown in each wraparound - sorry. Many of the smaller pieces are scanned - the larger are photographed. I have a new digital camera, so things will start processing faster.

Acrylic on Canvas
16" x 20" Sold
The "perfect" bunch of Zinfandel grapes interpreted over and again. The vine is near the ruins of an old miner's house. Crisp black lines, metallic accents, and roughly hewn textures define the beauty of the natural subject as much as the surreal, flat, "stained glass effect" breaks the subject down.

Acrylic on Canvas
W 16" x 20" x 1.25"
None of the first ten paintings here have"wraparound" subjects - but the four sides of all these paintings are painted black. This one has the best integration into black. One bright leaf remains.
