June Edmonds


June Edmonds (born 1959) is an American painter,[1] teaching artist, and public artist.[2] Edmonds' work is notable for its colorful, layered surfaces that draw on meditative practices to explore the relationships between color, repetition, spiritual contemplation, the power of archetypical systems, and interpersonal connection.[3][4] She is an active and prominent contributor to the California, particularly Los Angeles area, art scene, and is a member of both the Artist's Alliance of Southern California and the Women's Caucus for Art.[5] Her work has been shown extensively in California at venues including the California African American Museum, Huntington Beach Art Center, Watts Towers Art Center, and the Korean Cultural Center.[6] Public art works by the artist include a Venetian glass mosaic at the MTA Pacific Station in Long Beach and a mural project titled "Windows to Health" with LA Commons/Building Healthy Communities at the Expo Center in Exposition Park.[7] In 2018 Edmonds was a recipient of the City of Los Angeles (COLA) artist fellowship.[8]
