I posted earlier on this blog about Tim Shue’s art IN the garden. Now I want to talk about art FROM the garden! Lehman’s has a long history of providing support and products for gardeners and now, thanks to Larry and Deby Welty, there will be art from the garden in the form of painted gourds. The Welty’s are busy carving and painting a whole assortment of gourds that can be used for decorative bird house, bird feeders and home decor. You will even have an opportunity to try your hand at painting a gourd under Deby’s helpful instruction. To read more about gourd painting as well as what the other 12 participating artists will be demonstrating and selling at Lehman’s Local Artisan Festival on July 12th go to www.kidronarts.com

Art for the Garden

Tim Shue, a resident, artist and musician from the Kidron area, will be at Lehman’s Local Artisan Festival filling two roles. He will be providing musical entertainment and showcasing his unique mosaic garden art. To create the pieces you see above Tim uses carvings as well as pieces of glass or tiles to make this lovely garden art. The mix between the natural materials of the rock and the colors and textures of the glass and tile, along with the nature theme make for an interesting compliment to gardens, patios or walkways. They work beautifully whether in a manicured garden or a naturalized one. Plan on stopping by to see the many creative talents of Tim Shue on July 12th along with a wide variety of other local artist.
