MEDITERRANEAN SCRUB

"Mediterranean Scrub" Oil on Canvas cm 40x30

When you think about Tuscan countryside, cypress trees, sunflower fields and endless vineyards probably come to your mind. They are in fact very characteristic features of our landscape, especially in the most popular and touristic areas.
But if you have ever visited the Region you probably know that a lot of the land is covered by thick forests and the typical Mediterranean Underwood.
Today I painted this view, in the village where I live, where you can see the beautiful broom bushes, now in full bloom. Behind the mountains in the distance, covered in forest, starts the beautiful Maremma area.
