An Art Print Wine as a Gift

By Bruce Lewis


If you want a gift for a wine loving buddy, you may wish to consider something different from the bottle of wine that you typically give them. Anyone who is thought to be a wine bug is sure to get countless wine bottles on any present providing event. We all know they probably have more wine glasses and corkscrews than the local office store, as well. So just what possibly could you offer that will make your present stick out from the crowd? I suggest a great bit of wine art by Ann Rea for a nice change of pace.



Ann Rea is a San Francisco-based artist who concentrates on the stunning views of California's magnificent wine country. Numerous wine makers in California have commissioned Ann to produce one-in-a-million landscapes particularly for their wineries. Often these pieces of art come to be trademarks or even wine labels that help to push specific brand names. She has created these vineyard art works for a couple of the bigger wine outlets like R.H. Phillips, Wente, Gloria Ferrer, Gallo and Markham as well as little, lesser recognised vineyards.



The wine producers begins the method by giving Ann tours of their wine retailers. They clarify to her part that makes their wines unique featuring ground conditions and climate. When Ann feels that she sees what goes into the wine, she then sets up her easel basically in amongst the vines. She then uses her oils to capture on canvas the essence of each wine maker. In a few cases she'll paint many photographs over the seasons to exhibit the differing colors from season to season.



This clever pairing of fine art and wine is wholly original to the wineries and to wine buffs. The wine retailers profit from raised brand awareness in the public as well as sales of fine art prints. The wine fan gets a work of art that provides a lasting memory of a top quality wine or winery. For anyone that has been on a wine tour, vineyard art prints are a brilliant methodology to appreciate the memories for a ton of years.



Ann Rea has a growing past record not only amongst wine enthusiasts however also in the main stream art world. She has gained a name in the art world by her signature use of color as well as her astonishing ability to capture the quick changes of light in the wineries. Her paintings are in the look of French Impressionism and each one shows an unique spot in the specific vineyard. People often acquire plenty of her prints that show particular vineyards in each period so they might have a hole set.



If you're simply driven to obtain that container of wine for your friend, why not pick one that pairs with an Ann Rea art print? A delicious bottle of Gallo white wine would be a great base to your wine present. Perform a search online to get a Gallo winery print from Ann Rea. When it shows up, place the print in a beautiful frame to give with the white wine and voila! And there you have it. The right pair for an exceptional and unique wine gift!
