Stone Poem to Joy Stone Poem to an Engaging Couple We are the Earth, We are Life Stone Poem to a Silent Child Could I offer you a little stone poem with your coffee? This is the last week for Fernando's show at Gimme Coffee! in Trumansburg. There are some unique pieces (portraits), as well as the dancing figures that everyone loves. Hope to see you in Trumansburg! Kim and Fernando

The Whole Messy Busyness

I love this composite that Fernando took of my studio. (click on the image to see a larger version) Yes, maybe I am a little embarrassed by the disorder, but that is the reality of the studio. The picture captures some new paintings that I have been working on at the end of the summer. The Sunflowers finally came into bloom and I was able to work with them in the garden for a while, but then I finally moved them into the studio, where it is easier to paint for extended periods of time. I noticed the bugs came in too and I had to be mindful of the limited time I had before they devoured the leaves. It was also interesting to notice the gradual, but steady wilting and drying of the leaves and petals. Nature is always moving on.

Fernando at Gimme!

Balancing Act Fernando has a nice little show at Gimme, in Trumansburg, with some new work and some favorites from recent shows. The exhibit will be up through September. Balancing Act , was commissioned by our neighbor, Jean Taylor. It's not in the show at Gimme, but a beautiful example of a family portrait in stone.
