Song of the Wine Country

“When I first set out to create this landscape, I had a much smaller painting in mind,” says June of "Song of the Wine Country." “In the area of Sonoma’s Field Stone Winery there is this intricate spread of patchwork greens that extends as far as your eye can see. With each study I created, I found that I still had to stretch the panorama longer and longer and longer to capture the full and differing shades of green you see when you are there. It flows like a lively symphony, meandering playfully and returning always to its melodic theme song — thus the title, 'Song of the Wine Country.'”
