August at Kirkman Vineyard background


After drawing a successful vineyard scene at Rappahannock, I decided to place it with another landscape on an extra page for "Under Vine." This is the background, composed to evoke the warm, hazy last days of summer. It will be placed at the end of the "Summer" section of the book. Note the goldenrod blossoms in the bottom session. The background is inspired by a vineyard owned by friends of mine, the Kirkman family. They have a vineyard but they don't make wine. They just sell their crop to wineries.
