Art of the Vineyard

Art of the Vineyard by Conway, Gary. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781885203106.

In the late sixties, Gary Conway discovered and fell in love with a broken-down ranch on 320 acres in Paso Robles, California. Arriving - safely - via helicopter crash landing, Conway landed thick in the midst of a landscape that would take him on a journey from actor to rancher to vintner. Art of the Vineyard is an odyssey, covering the trials and tribulations of a man on a quest to rediscover the land, and "the farmer within." From horses to cattle to fruit to wine, natures rich palette seduces Conway. The serene Santa Lucia Mountains, the woodlands and rich pastures, and skies of brilliant hues become a spiritual landscape that leads him down a path of adventure and self-discovery, and is reflected in his stunning oil paintings.
