New Guest Artist: BEMBY YOCUM

Bemby Yocum is joining us at From the Summer's Garden and we could not be more delighted. that is exactly what you will be when you discover her work. Beauty, whimsy and faith are a few words that drive Bemby's creativity. Bemby seeks inspiration from the world around her, the way a branch crosses the sky, the way the fields roll into the clouds and from each of the creatures they shelter. Over-arching all of these is her fierce fascination with and love of color.

When asked what she hopes to communicate to you through her pieces she said,
“I’d like to think that as they pass the piece in their home it will bring refreshment – some joy and some comfort for the rough patches they may be facing in life. I’ve been through some big valleys of loss in my life and draw strength from the knowledge that ‘God’s got this’. ”
See these pieces and more at HERE COMES THE SUN!
