Humpback Whale Willy

Humpback Whale Willy Dana Volk Wines - Grenache & RoseBlack Ink  Humpback whales are a frequent sight in the Santa Barbara channel. This painting was inspired by a trip to the Channel Islands, a Grenache body and rose belly. Each wine is different and oxidizes at a different pace. Each painting is photographed after the painting is complete to capture their true colors before they start changing. A painting will continue to change colors over time as it continues to oxidize, this makes it a living & breathing piece of art.  A wide range of colors can be extracted from wine depending on the processing or painting methods used. Either straight from the bottle, fermented in a container or evaporated sludge from an open container, wine painting can be very complex or very simple.  Watch paintings come to life on video:Instagram: @DanielleReneeArtFacebook: @DanielleReneeWineArt
