Steve Penley - Chimney Rock

Since the previous posting of Georgia artist Steve Penley, I have acquired the following painting that elegantly displays a 2005 Chimney Rock wine bottle. The visually accurate depiction of the bottle is surrounded by vivid brushstrokes in colors that accentuate the subject while also allowing the painting to blend into whatever space surrounds it.

For those interested, the 2005 Chimney Rock vintage has a deep garnet color, an intense aroma of fruit and vanilla, with a velvety taste upon the palate. This wine is LUSCIOUS in one word, but you would expect that with a price tag of $50+.
