FINK'S FARM

I love this farm which is located in Wading River, LI.  Guaranteed to have the best in their vegetables fruits and beautiful flowers.  They decorate for all the seasons which is wonderful if you like those reference photos!!  My favorite season in Fink's Farm is the 4th of July with my favorite colors...red, white and blue!!!!

  12. Looks like it would be such a fun place to visit. I love markets with fresh produce and flowers just picked from the fields. When we traveled as children it seemed as though my mom had to stop at every one we passed. Your painting certainly shows the variety of veggies, etc. they offer!

  14. I am amazed at your skill, Hilda. The way you captured the difference between the metal truck and the surfaces of the fruit and veggies is fabulous. I especially like the light hitting the wheel fender and the lettering on the door. Great stuff!

  26. Hi Hilda! Just checking in as the semester comes to a close and I have more time to visit my art friends again. Hope you are well and painting away! Beautiful piece, as usual. The rusty color on the truck communicates the atmosphere of the entire piece beautifully. I just LOVE that color... it tells a story of old things that still matter, that have endured despite hardships in life.

  32. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
