by Felix Adamo
Felix Adamo is a news photographer and a longtime friend. When I open the paper and a photo demands a second look, it’s usually by Felix. His approach to composition, light, and content reflects the eye of a fine artist. Tonight his current photography exhibit, Fiore & Floret, opens at Valentien Restaurant & Wine Bar, 3310 Truxtun Ave. #160. in Bakersfield California. With a reception from 5 to 7 p.m., look to an evening of art, wine, and hors d’oeuvres. 25% of sales go to The Cancer Center at San Joaquin Community Hospital. Here’s an article about Felix’s fine art photography display by Camille Gavin in the Bakersfield Californian. Go Felix!

From the Sketchbook
January 29, 2012 at 10:58 pm | Posted in From The Studio | Leave a commentThis January’s see-saw weather… a few bitter, hail thrashing, cold windy days, but mostly temperate, sunny skies, has me thinking of Spring wildflowers already. Here’s a bit of that season’s color from one of my sketchbooks.

September -mixed media by Joan Desmond-2011
Yesterday’s rough-edged rain
slashed away
summer’s gray smoke
cut loose
bound earth fragrance
ripped first leaves
spiraling down
Today’s soft clouds
float in fresh blue
awakened memories
mist over plump soil
curl in morning’s cool fringe
A familiar awareness
beckons
