Welcome to Krasemann Art.com
May, 2013
May already! Β
It's been a late spring in many parts of North America and we're no exception. Β It's snowing as I write this and
migrant birds are shivering in the trees. Β I'm spreading lots of birdseed but I still feel for these early arrivals.
For the past week (and the remainder of this month) I have been painting with the Ely Greenstone Juried
Art Exhibition in mind. Β The show is at the end of July but entries must be finished by the end of May.
I'm looking forward to the fine food, drink and new art to savor at the opening reception.
I'm also germinating Milkweed plant seeds to create a raised bed of plants for the returning Monarch
butterflies that are at the northern edge of their range here. Β With all the loss of milkweed plants
along roadsides due to salting, herbicides and mowing, I'm doing my part to help provide food
for these beautiful butterflies. Β
More news next month. Β

The need for creative expression has always been on my Lifeβs Agenda. I always thought the process of putting paint to
board is magical and this thought permeates my painting. Imagine being part of a community that began with cave painting and continues today, where the paints and brushes have remained the same over the centuries.
Itβs such a privilege to see the world through the eyes of an artist.
