“A Touch of Paradise” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © “Flamingos walk, and sway in peace / Seeing this, it makes my troubles cease / The sun is hiding, leaving a pink scar / That stretches right across the sky / Thats all weve seen so far / And all I do is look into your eyes / For that special touch of paradise / Just a touch, a touch of paradise / Just a special touch of paradise / You hold my hand, thats when we kiss / And it doesnt take long no, until I get the gist / Of this love that stretches out across the land / Where rainbows flash, as were walking in the sand / And all I do is look into your eyes / A touch of spring, and autumn sweet / Well the trees vibrate when our eyes meet / And I think of all the love that we have been making / You touch my hand and I walk off shaking / And all I do is look into your eyes.” / ~Ross Wilson and G Smith Recent Sales: 1 x Card – unknown buyer – America Thank you so much. / Profits donated to Starlight Childrens Foundation Australia See “A Touch of Paradise” at my website /

“Shimmer” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © The Australian Sunrise / “The Morning Star paled slowly, the Cross hung / low to the sea, / And down the shadowy reaches the tide came / swirling free, / The lustrous purple blackness of the soft / Australian night, / Waned in the grey awakening that heralded / the light; / Still in the dying darkness, still in the forest dim, / The pearly dew of the dawning clung to each / giant limb, / Till the sun came up from ocean, red with the / cold sea mist, / And smote on the limestone ridges, and the / shining tree-tops kissed; / Then the fiery Scorpion vanished, the magpie’s / note was heard, And the wind in the sheoak / wavered and the honeysuckles stirred; / The airy golden vapour rose from the river breast, / The kingfisher came darting out of his / crannied nest, / And the bullrushes and reed-beds put off their / sallow grey / And burnt with cloudy crimson at the dawning / of the day.” / ~James Lister Cuthbertson See “Shimmer” at my website /
“Breeze” Photography & Artwork / by Holly Kempe © Grass reeds swaying in a gentle breeze….. “Exhilaration is the Breeze / That lifts us from the Ground / And leaves us in another place / Whose statement is not found—“ “Returns us not, but after time / We soberly descend / A little newer for the term / Upon Enchanted Ground—“ / ~ Emily Dickinson Featured in the: Inspired Art group – April 09 Thank you so much.

/ This is page 2 of the Summer Journal…as with all my other visual Journals, it will be a record of events, meals, painting experiments, parties, recipes etc…this is a large journal much like the others, and I am looking forward to filling it up with memories…Pg 1 is all about beer, a drink which is beloved in Canada and drunk here all year long, and now page 2 is Egg and Chips still in the baking pan, which can go with beer too… ..summer’s here and the time is ripe as the saying goes…journal page subjects are casual and unstructured…I don’t fuss or fiddle with the paintings too much and I try to complete each in one sitting...
