About First Date White Wine
Two small green olive characters embrace beneath a glass of white wine, halos above their heads, while their cast shadow reveals a pair of mischievous, horned alter egos surrounded by hearts and fireworks. It captures the nervous, hopeful energy of a first date with a devilish, celebratory twist.
As with Godard's other limited editions, it rewards close viewing: he is known for tucking hidden names, dates, and initials into his compositions. It is a favorite among collectors of wine and vineyard wall art and kitchen and dining room art. If you are ready to start or grow a collection, browse the full range of Michael Godard art for sale.

A companion to First Date Red Wine
Where its companion piece, First Date Red Wine, leans into the warmth of red, First Date White Wine gives Godard's saturated palette a cooler, brighter subject and swaps grapes for embracing olive characters. The halo-and-shadow joke reads just as well with a different fruit.
About Michael Godard
From draftsman and drummer to "Rockstar of the Art World"
Born in 1963 and later based in Las Vegas, Godard studied at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena and at UNLV, and spent years working as a draftsman and commercial illustrator, and drumming in Las Vegas bands, before painting full time. The turning point was a friend's request for a birthday painting about dirty martinis: he answered with personified, animated olive characters full of attitude, and that became the visual language behind the nickname collectors know him by, the "Rockstar of the Art World."
The signature style
His pop art is instantly recognizable: personified characters, bold saturated color, and theatrical exaggeration with a satirist's sense of timing. First Date White Wine applies that same craft to its own subject, exactly what you see in this piece.
Beyond the canvas, and giving back
His book Don't Drink and Draw, with a foreword by friend and collector Ozzy Osbourne, was named an Art Book of the Year in 2006. Since 2006, following the loss of his daughter Paige to brain cancer at 16, the artist has maintained an ongoing charitable relationship with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and related causes.
