We have been selected by our fantastic guests as their # 1 Restaurant In Tulsa from 1132 restaurants , we are real happy to be in Tulsa and that  our hard work in this almost 7 years had shown ,, thank you Tulsa and the surrounding ares , including Oklahoma City.  

In September Italians and tourists  return from their vacations,  many festivals take place the first two weeks  of the month as summer comes to an end. You'll still find small food festivals throughout Italy during the month of September, look  for la festa or Sagra, where you can usually sample inexpensive regional food hand made items, truffles, wines cheeses and many other products made locally.
That is the main reason why I  like to visit my old country in September, My favorite place is Cervia which is in the province of Ravenna , where the restaurant takes its name " Villa Ravenna" another very important consideration is the time were the grapes are harvested for delicious wine making.  

I'm an Italian working in the greatest country in the World, we are making the best of what the country can give which is the possibility to  pursue your dreams. With a reality in your belt, a dream and  work with passion any body can achieve it. The business I'm is an Italian Restaurant name Villa Ravenna located in Tulsa Oklahoma 74145 USA . We have a great menu, fantastic wines, we make special attention to details  and consistency is our motto . Our guest consider us as the Best Italian restaurant . We are proud of serving all our fantastic  guest .  
What   work means to me,  nothing really, for me is not work 16 hours a day, every  day , It does not mean that I'm a workaholic, I love to have fun and travel, especially to Italy once a year or a escape here and there.  

We are so excited of been in Tulsa, the hospitality is unmeasurable, we have made Tulsa our home and dedicated to provide the best of us and has been paid off , we will continue to make our guest fell at home , have the best experience in meals and wines . We love you Tulsa

As a prelude to Villa Ravenna’s smashing annual holiday wine dinner, La Festa di Natale, artist Todd Ford will unveil two stunning new wine paintings (one white, one red), created specifically for this special evening, one hour before the first glass is poured. In addition to making these two pieces available, Todd will be painting a wine piece live in the gallery from 3:00 to 6:30.

“Of all the reference photos I’ve taken, the wine pieces have been the most difficult. I had to set up the shot and pour with one hand/take the photo with the other hand(no remote either). One pour, one shot. It took some practice and lots of patience, but I finally was able to pour and actually hit the glass while stretching to reach the camera.

The wine made quite a mess each pour, so I had plastic stretched and taped all over the studio to catch it (Dexter would have approved).

I repeated the “pour, click, clean, reset” sequence over 300 times for the red wine and the white wine.  Yes, 300 times for each.

When I started reviewing the photos and choosing the ones I would use for the paintings, I was amazed at the level of abstraction in the wine caught in motion. The visual appeal of the static/dynamic relationship between the glass and the wine really spoke to me.

Wine in motion required me to let go and allow the wine to do what it does when poured. I was extremely pleased with the photos I ended up with and was excited to translate them into oil.

A painting instructor in college used to say, “don’t be a slave to the photo”. That advice resonates in every piece I paint. As I have said before, I have no desire to be a traditional photorealist. These pieces are no different. They have photoreal qualities, as much of my work does, but they are simplified in some areas and embellished in others.

I am extremely pleased with the results.” – Todd
