Description
Day and night my thoughts incline
To the blandishments of wine:
Jars were made to drain, I think,
Wine, I know, was made to drink.
When I die, (the day be far!) .
Should the potters make a jar
Out of this poor clay of mine,
Let the jar be filled with wine
The poem Day and Night my Thoughts Incline by Richard Henry Stoddard
This is Billy and he pours fine wines every day. You can tell by looking that he's a character. He's bright and witty and very entertaining. He always has a story. I've wiled away a few afternoons drinking his wine and listening to his tales.
All of my works are fine art photographs. The Fine Art America algorithms do not allow photos to be sold as original art so in order to offer the original piece, my work must be listed as digital art. My work offered as "original' means that I will not sell the image to anyone else. The purchaser is guaranteed a one of a kind image which can only be acquired through direct contact with me. The art photo is printed using the highest quality materials available today and is certified to be one of a kind. There are a number of factors that separate the work from production or giclee prints. I personally supervise the printing and control the source material. You are guaranteed a unique work of art.
I deeply and humbly appreciate all the kind words and support I receive about my work. The greatest compliment you can pay me is to share my work with others. Please share it on Facebook, on Twitter and other social media. Or, just send the url to a friend or family member who might enjoy seeing it in an email. Spread the word to any and all that you think will find what I do interesting and appealing.
Please contact me by email to order my recently published Acclaim Press book, Hermann, Missouri, One of the Prettiest Towns in America.
Watch my postings for announcements on two other photo books that are in the works.

William, looks as if you have captured Billy expounding upon the joys of the grape. I can imagine the two of you whiling away an afternoon exchanging one yarn after another. Wonderful character study! voted
