From journal entry to wine label


prickly pear cactus in bloom, originally uploaded by cabanagirl.

A few days ago Barbara Pasero, a graphic designer from Italy asked if she could use my watercolor for a private wine label in Sicily. OMG this was exciting to me....especially since I love wine & Italy. Here is my journal entry from January 1 2009. These cacti were in full bloom during the holidays at the beach in California. Now it will be on a private wine label.
