My submission for Illustration Friday's "foggy" theme is one of two wine labels I painted for Justin Vineyards. The grape Nebbiolo is sometimes associated with fog so the owner of the vineyard, Justin Baldwin asked me to feature a soft fog through the rolling hills.
Thank you for all the beautiful comments that you left for Ratty boy. It means so much :(

I am always amzed at the things you do with your art!! Lovely!
This is just lovely, just right!
Oh, Val! You've lost a treasured friend! I feel for you, but know that, in time,pain will ease and the happy memories will remain.
The wine labels look pretty swish. Exactly what a wine-bibber like myself would appreciate!
(I'm now at wordpress)
Love the subtlty of that label.
Sorry to hear you've lost such a great companion.
I love this moonlit scene - so peaceful and beautiful - I could happily sit there and just watch the rolling fog - wonderful illustration!
I want to get these bottles. I wish it was 1989 all over again.
I love the velvety midnight blue of this and how nice to see your artwork on a wine label. Hope you got to sample the wares?

I really love these, they are so beautiful on the labels!
I'm so sorry to hear about your Ratty Boy, my dogs are such a part of my family I can't imagine losing one. He was lucky to have such a happy life with you!
Sorry to hear about your dog! That other page did not allow comments, at least not for me, and it crashed my browser.
Great illustration work, as always.
Another great illustration, Valerie! I was going to give you the same award that Mike did, but when I read Eric's post, I saw that you were one of the 7 (including me) that he gave the award to! :) Congrats anyway!
Love Nebbiolo!
Slightly cloudy head sometimes...
Perfect illustrations for wine labels!

Please send bottle of wine right away so I may inspect the label more carefully.

What great wine labels! I am so envious... I have always thought that designing a wine label would be quite fun. Perfect submission for IF this week, thanks for sharing.
Nice fog. Very appropriate for a wine. That sounds like a fun project; your style works perfectly for it too.
these are GORGEOUS, vallie! just perfectly suited for the look and feel of what i like to call "art wine." stunning.
I always love your work and this is no exception, wonderful fog.
Gorgeous! And what fun to have your art on a wine label. Soooooooo cool!!!
hello sweet friend,just stopped in to say hi.have spent all my latest time with my wounded Marine son and other children.I AM SO GLAD TO HAVE THEM ALL BACK SAFE AND ALIVE.come visite.
I love this. I have to admit I sometimes buy wines based on how cool the labels are... these would definitely make it into the shopping cart! Beautiful work, Valerie.
Aaaaah, so gentle and beautiful, your fog. If his vineyard is anything like your illo, I bet those grapes are primo delicious!
Cool!

Great job! Would you be interested in designing another nebbiolo product?
