2026 Vendor Events, June through October

My display from the Spaghetti Dinner in May.

It’s going to be a busy summer! The photo above is from the HCMT Spaghetti Dinner in May this year, but it has a lot of the things I’ll have all summer. And of course it will be in my tent for most of these 2026 events! I rearranged my display at the beginning of […]

Angled Winter Sun, Winter Still Life, Fresh and Vintage

Winter Still Life, pastel, 8 x 10, 2014 © Bernadette E. Kazmarski

That deeply angled winter sunlight reaches farther into the windows than summer sunlight, into the corner with the fruit bowl. I’ve been looking at the late afternoon sun hitting this vintage ceramic bowl where I keep my apples and enjoying the shapes of the apples, the reflections on the bowl with its uneven design in […]

A Coral Winter Sunset

One February afternoon I caught a surprise winter sunset and shared photos in “I Chased A Sunset”. …and it disappeared over the edge and took a piece of my soul with it. Really, on the way home from a quick errand to a shopping center I encountered a stunning winter sunset just beginning to color […]

October Sunset After a Storm: How Small Beneath the Sky

The many-faceted history of “How Small Beneath the Sky” I don’t know what it was about this image as a photograph in 2011 that stayed with me from the time I took it. It’s that sense of my tiny self, smaller than one of those dots in the valley below, one of which on the […]

First Carnegie Farmers Market a Wrap

Carnegie Farmers Market tent display, right.

Well, the first Carnegie Farmers Market of the season is a wrap–a very hot wrap at 94 degrees on Main Street in full sun on the pavement! Thank goodness my tent canopy has a “silver lining” that reflects a lot of the heat so the shade is actually cooler. The 5-10mph breeze was very welcome […]

Still Life, Angled Sun, Fresh and Vintage

That deeply angled winter sunlight reaches farther into the windows than summer sunlight, into the corner with the fruit bowl. I remember studying the late afternoon sun hitting this vintage ceramic bowl where I kept my apples and enjoying the shapes of the apples, the reflections on the bowl with its uneven design in indigo […]

Familiar Details on a “Dead End” Street

Dead End, pastel on prepared board, 8 x 12 © Bernadette E. Kazmarski

I love snowy winter scenes, blue morning shadows or brilliant sunsets, snowfall, surprise bits of color. Winter has long been my biggest inspiration for landscape painting. And I also love a row of houses in the sun without snow, the bare trees, the long shadows, and this dead end street has so many familiar elements. […]
