Cinque Terre, Italy Painting Giveaway!

I am so excited and honored to get to be sharing Joanne Grant Art and her gorgeous painting today. Quite honestly, this is one of the most beautiful paintings of Italia I’ve ever seen — and what’s amazing is she’s giving it to one of you!

She painted this in soft pastel {!!} as she recalled the vibrant colors, awnings and balconies overflowing with flowers so characteristic of Cinque Terre, Italy. It’s one of our favorite places on earth. Yours too?! She’s a passionate and extremely talented artist, a mother of three, and as she says — ecstatically married to her high school sweetheart of 26 years. What absolutely incredible talent to paint such beautiful scenes and what kind generosity to give away this 11×16 print today.
Thank you, Joanne!
Someone so very lucky will get to hang this beautiful painting in their home!
Plenty of ways to enter below:

    This painting is absolutely gorgeous! I might be visiting Cinque Terri this fall, if it looks like this painting I am pretty sure I'm going to love it! I also love her Reflections painting!

    I have not visited Cinque Terri. But Italy is one of my favorite places to visit. My husband and I dream of owning a vineyard over there once he retires from the Navy

    I almost went with Tuscany as my favorite, but I think I like Bluebirds best! I'm always perched at the table, peering over breakfast with my binoculars…

    This is gorgeous. We went to Italy last year (you actually answered a bunch of my questions on formspring at the time) and Cinque Terre was our absolute favorite. I so wish I could be back there right now. This painting takes me back.

    Also, I didn't know if you wanted us to put our favorite paintings in her gallery in teh comments or what, but besides this one, I love Three Boats and Reflection.

    And I have not been to the Cinque Terre. Yet. We will.

    I haven't really been to Italy in general before! [save for an afternoon spent at the first town across the border from France] but I have been to the French riviera, and I feel like, at least in pictures, the French Mediterranean and the Italian Mediterranean coasts give off a similar vibe. ๐Ÿ™‚ this painting is absolutely gorgeous!

    I have been to Cinque Terre a few times in my life and I fall more and more in love with it every single time! The hike throughout the towns is a must in my opinion!

  12. Jennifer Peters says

    We still have our Vernazza wine glasses that we brought home and still dream about that pesto lasagna that we ate EACH DAY and then literally ordered a third helping for DESSERT (I'm not even kidding).
    GREAT memories and beautiful painting!
    love, lanneybear

    Oh gosh I think it's a tie between this painting and 'Rough Surf' It reminds me of a huge painting like that, that was in my family home. Somehow it calms me.

  24. Kim says

    July 16, 2013 at 3:58 pm

    I like the Tuscany painting. I like wide spaces such as landscape. Also the cat drawing is so very realistic.

  31. Van Nguyen says

    July 16, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    I've never been to Cinque Terre before, nor Europe for that matter. I feel like I'm missing out on the beauty found there.

    Too Funny- Two things:
    I arrived home from The Cinque Terre Saturday night and put my first post (about it) up today. LOVED IT!

    Secondly, my afternoon plan was to sit and do some watercolour paintings of our trip.

    Needless to say this contest had nice timing!
