i know i've been fooled before but it's hard for me to believe this is anything but a photo of artwork.
painting abstracts reality through the bluntness of a brush, and also through the intermediaries of the human eye and hand. These translators of reality by necessity abstract it.
very painterly, more impressionist than abstract to me but I like the colors and light of the image. Makes me think of Italy especially with the red white and green colors.
