Tribute to The Balvenie Distillery
inspired by a photo of @balveniedc posted by @thebalvenie
Great advice from John Robertson @messrswhisky for choosing this interior view from #warehouse24 to turn it into a canvas!

In The Balvenie, their whiskeys document true character stories that are then crafted into inspiring single malts. The distillery is built on stories told from one generation of artisans to the next.
These stories are his soul. It's how they pass on what they know, how they process experiences, and how they create new ideas.
The challenge of this painting was to transmit the spirit of the warehouse where its whiskeys ripen, in the stillness and silence of careful rest, each barrel tells a great story of effort, passion and dedication.
