Campalfi in sunflowers
A rambling farmhouse by the river Merse
Campalfi on the Merse, near Brenna and Siena
Invitation to Tuscany start renting apartments in this beautiful farmhouse near the Merse river quite a few years ago. They were owned by Reiner, a keen cook who always delighted his visitors with fabulous meals. We lost touch for a while, until recently his son got in touch as he'd started the house rentals again.
I was delighted to see that the house looked much the same as it did all those years ago, though the field in front has now been planted with lavender rather than sunflowers - i'll have to go back and do a new version of this sketch!
Campalfi is available for rent - with river-swimming rather than a pool, very eco-friendly.
Near Rosia, Siena

Prints are made with archival inks on one of two papers - either 350g Hahnemuhle German Etching paper, or 290g. Hahnemuhle Hemp, a beautifully heavy paper with rich colours. Made with 60% hemp fiber, this is an eco-friendly paper. Hemp is a highly sustainable resource, historically used for papermaking. Hahnemuhle use spring water for milling, and the production of hemp paper does not require bleaching or chloride, making the process less impactful. Postage and packing will be calculated on checkout.

Framing and mounts
An A4 print is best framed in an A3 frame - these images work best with a decent amount of white space surrounding them.
