My Painting and Cultural Tour in Tuscany...

This September I led a painting group on an ‘agriturismo’ twenty minutes south of Florence. As well as painting around this farm, which produces exceptional, organic olive oil, wine, grappa and vino santo,  we took two day-long visits to Florence and one to Siena. The trip is documented in an eight minute video on youtube  “A Painting and Cultural Tour in Tuscany and Liguria 2010″  which you may access here. This blog focuses on the eight oil paintings I completed during my month in Italy. They will be exhibited for two weekends in my studio...

A Conversation with Spain Rodriguez: L. ...

When the rains drove me off the streets a couple of weeks ago, I proposed to  Spain Rodriguez, that we paint each other. The resulting works are still incomplete, but I am posting them anyway because one of our concurrent conversations dealt with a show at the Oakland Museum of California that closes March 8th. I’m hoping we will inspire some of you to visit the exhibition ‘L.A.Paint’. It will be worth your time. Spain Rodriguez by Anthony Holdsworth, Work in Progress, oil/canvas Spain was in the midst of a project illustrating the life of the American...

Painting Workshop in Tuscany, Italy...
