As one of Michael Godard's wine cellar art pieces, First Love carries the same hallmark style collectors know him for: bold outlines, saturated color, and a wink of personality worked into the composition.
"First love is magical, as is this glowing, golden forest. The couple decided to take a romantic bike ride to the perfect place for a picnic. Here in this tiny clearing, life fills the air with butterflies, and a squirrel scurries through the tree branches. As the beautiful strawberry pours their wine, the cork wanders the meadow collecting flowers for the strawberry. The red bicycle dates back to the 1950's when innocence was everywhere, and hidden in the oak branches are many hearts shaped by the branches of the majestic trees." ~ Michael Godard
This piece speaks to fans of wine cellar art, wine and vineyard wall art, and Godard's wider grape and cork themed catalog.

About Michael Godard
"First Love" combines two of Michael Godard’s gentler recurring subjects, flowers and personified strawberry characters, into a single romantic scene, a register quite different from the bar-and-casino energy of his better-known cocktail work. The wine cork included in the composition ties the piece back to his wine series even as its central mood leans toward innocence and new romance.
