California Wine Country
The California Wine Country is a region of Northern California in the United States known as a premium wine-growing region. Viticulture and wine-making have been practiced in the region since the mid-19th century. There are over 400 wineries in the area north of San Francisco, mostly located in the area's valleys, including Napa Valley in Napa County, and the Sonoma Valley, Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, Bennett Valley, and Russian River Valley in Sonoma County. I am working on a campaign with CK Mondavi and wanted to create an artwork that would fit with the upcoming campaign post. This painting is titled "California Grapes" and is a mixed media piece measuring 16x20 inches. I painted it after an old print I found that was rather faded and dull looking. I loved how the leaves set off the grapes and decided to punch it all up and make the grapes just as juicy looking as can be. The painting is also available in a variety of prints here.
