ETAPE/STEP 5/3

 


Département 33 - Gironde    /  Louis (Luigi)  Toffoli

La couleur "bordeaux" qui nous conduit directement à la ville de Bordeaux. We use bordeaux for a dark red, we also can use "wine lees" to name a reddish-purple color.

Bordeaux color which is burgundy (Bourgogne - another vineyard) in English.


Indices / clues : 33cl - wine (Bordeaux st Julien and Margaux) - canelés pastry specialty of Bordeaux - Italy - Denis Kalman sewing workshop

Italian clues with la Linea (created by Osvaldo Cavandoli - below) and the Italian firstname Luigi (Louis Toffoli was born in Trieste). 


I love this painter and maybe it's because I have discovered him with this stamp about embroidery.



Let see how people have re-interpreted his paintings...

Have you ever paint with wine? I have tried once with wine and coffee!
But you can appreciate this artist and maybe visit her Facebook page.

My only attempt with coffee and Gaillac...

Bordeaux can be nice on monochrome patterns.






Comme il est d'usage de dire : à boire avec modération mais à broder sans retenue...

As it's usual to say : drink with moderation but stitch without stopping...





Past impressions.


Now, for those who don't know the "canelés" it's delicious...
