Aw, Kitty!

There is a larger image in there, if you press on the photo you can see it BIG!

National Train Day

This is my little drawing of the Wine Train. I was curious why the Wine Train didn't have some kind of event today on National Train Day. I really love that train, I rode it last year while taking photographs. I have a really great one of Chef Kelly in the Wine Train kitchen cooking his pork loins...

Art, Artists and Artwork

We are two artists living in downtown Napa. We create artwork in many forms and believe that making delicious wine is an art as well. Art and wine, like food and love, they all slow dance together to the classical music...

We heard a rumor, we live here, we can't help it. The rumor is there's a NEW wine company in town. I know, that's NOT news in Napa, but this one is right across the street. I was talking to my new neighbor and asked him about his new adventure, Mr. J says yes, it's true.

I'll post more information about this new wine just as soon as I ask him how much I can say!

What Part of "MY BBQ" Don't You Understand?

It's almost that time again. SPRING! Time to plan the ultimate smoky seafood Bar B Que in Napa Valley. That means deciding on some WINE.

Whole Foods in Napa Sells Festive Cauliflower

That's right, these photos were NOT retouched or modified anyway in PhotoShop. We found these tasty vegetables at the newly opened Whole Foods Store in Napa right next door to my old favorite Trader Joe's.

Bill Clinton in Napa Valley Opera House

From the White House to the Opera House, here's Bill behind the Opera House surrounded by secret service getting into the car [OK, I'm going to make a lousy paparazzi]


Then here's Bill whizzing past me as he leaves and some lady shoved me to the left.

Copia street painting event in Napa Valley Wine Country

This is a perspective shot to show the scale of this thing. It was 12 feet square, we didn't realize how big that really was until we got down on our KNEES!
As an artist, I thought this event was really well planned. They had a courtesy tent available to us which made all the difference, I believe it was the ladies from New Tech High School here in Napa that were such wonderful hosts. They made us feel welcome, even going around handing out cold bottles of water, now that's class!
