Sunset Corn Painting SOLD!

Now that the holidays are over I can share this photo with you all! At the New Jersey Farm Bureau Annual Meeting I sold the original painting “Sunset Corn”. Caroline Etsch, the Women’s Leadership Chair, purchased the painting as a surprise Christmas gift for her husband, Jim, who is the Treasurer of NJFB. It is such an honor to have my painting in their collection on Etsch farm. (Shared with permission)

2019 Salem County Farmlands Calendar

The 2019 Salem County Farmlands Calendar is a collection of photographs by me, Kimberly English, featuring the farmers and farmland of Salem County. $5 of each calendar sold will be donated to the Salem Vo-Tech Future Farmers of America Program. A great holiday gift that gives back to our farming community!

Earlier this year I reached out to last year's calendar customers to ask for their feedback on the ordering process, quality, and content. I received wonderful ideas and I took them to heart when designing this year's calendar. Many people requested the preview of the previous and next month on the calendar grid and I have to agree that that is a hand feature so I incorporated that into this year's design. I continued to choose one photo per month as it was almost unanimous that was enjoyed by customers. I like that it gives the customer the opportunity to frame the photo(s) if they choose after the calendar has been used. A new feature this year: I added photos along the side the calendar grid. I really like this update and I hope that you do, too!

2018 Salem County Farmlands Calendar

I initially started taking photographs of Salem County farmlands to use as reference material for my paintings. After my children were born, I turned to taking pictures in the morning and evening as an extra way of being creative and finding inspiration. There has been such a positive response that I decided to compile them into a calendar for a good cause.

The 2018 Salem County Farmlands Calendar is a collection of photographs by me, Kimberly English, featuring the farmers and farmland of Salem County. $5 of each calendar sold will be donated to the Woodstown Future Farmers of America Program. A great holiday gift that gives back to our farming community!

Featuring: Coleman Brothers Farms of Elmer, English Farms of Aldine, Wilson Brother's Farms of Daretown, and Spring Brook Farms of Pittsgrove.

New Painting: Sunset Corn

One of my best friends from college, Don Macavoy, is a professional photographer that travels the country and documents his journeys through amazing landscape photographs. While he was in the south Jersey area he took the reference picture for this painting. The beautiful sky and the contrasting silhouette of the corn inspired me. I really enjoyed working with the positive and negative spaces created by the corn stalks.
