Driving with joyful tears
I remember when I first moved to the Fleurieu Peninsula nine years ago. I had been living in Adelaide since my teenage years and had lost connection with the land. My new home is a stones throw from the coast and the vineyards of the McLaren Vale wine region. During those early days as I drove around the area, I would start welling up and feel overcome by the beauty of the countryside. Looking out to the rolling hills and patchwork of vineyards was actually a very spiritual experience for me….awe inspiring! Now, nine years later, I still feel I am living in one of the most beautiful parts of the world, what a privilege! The fact that this is a wine region is so special to me as it completes the circle of my life, having grown up in the Riverland wine region in South Australia. I studied art at Adelaide Central School of Art and so now I have put together my passion for art and my love of nature and all things wine related in this Art/Wine Calendar 2021. I hope you enjoy it and also reading my random thoughts through the blog posts.
