We all have something. We rang in the new year day with mild weather – almost balmy. Today back to cool temps and rain in the forecast. Rain is always in the forecast anymore.

hello it’s me

Kim of Red Dirt Farm and Studio

Welcome, I'm an artist/maker that lives on a small flower and chicken farm in Virginia. I’m an introvert that prefers to spend quiet time in nature observing and taking photos and painting scenes from our happy life. On our little farm, we grow flowers from seeds and gather fresh eggs from our sweet chicks. I run a small farm stand and Art Wagon on our property. I also have a mermaid heart that longs to be by the water. Sometimes I share things I cook and make and our trips to the sea. I hope you will say hello. xo Kim

I know it’s a pretty ugly photo. To me it’s a great big bucket of smiles. 😊😊😊😊 loading up the car heading out to Sentara Martha Jefferson hospital to make my first flower delivery. 🌸💚🌻. I was so excited I couldn’t sleep last night finally at 4:30 am just as I was drifting off the &$!@!? Phone rang and scared the crap out of me. They hung up - grrr you dumb jerk you won’t take my happy from me today! It’s flower delivery day! In memory of Sunny Beecher @idratherbejunkin

Thank you all for your kindness and support on my last post. It helps to ease the disappointment.

To my customers that have been so kind and honest - thank you. I am closing the market wagon down for a few days or indefinitely. I am overwhelmed with sadness at this time because of the increased dishonesty and theft that has been taking place at my sweet little wagon. I don’t want to make a rash decision to end something that I have worked so hard to build, so I am going to sleep on it for a bit and decide what is best for my future.

Good morning Monday. How was your weekend? Yesterday at the market it seemed a bit odd seeing maskless people. So grateful that our community has access to vaccines so that it was possible to gather. A little glimpse of my display. Have a wonderful day.

I must have flowers always, always. - Monet

I spent the morning in the garden cutting flowers for the market Sunday in the village of Palmyra. Proceeds from flower sales to benefit #sunnysgardenofhope I hope you will join us 12-5 come and get some flowers. Summer in the village art market. Please share and tell your friends!

Saturday greetings! Spinning the wheel of luck, also known as closing my eyes and scrolling in my photos and the one I landed on is this one. Agave Earrings made with my painting. Shop these Sunday at the market in Palmyra or Click link in Bio to purchase.

Random bits and pieces from this week. Grateful for the rain but won’t lie the storm last night scared the crap out of me. Trying to juggle raising four littles in the house and maintaining a somewhat normal appearing facade. Not getting much done creatively because those littles are either climbing on my shoulder or head and then practicing flying lessons off me and on to my work surface. It’s a little bit crazy. Good crazy. 🤪🤪🤪 happy Friday all.

My Roma tomato’s are wearing festive little hats. 👒🍅 amazing what a little rain will do.

Before the rain I did this thing, just for the joy of it. Some of my mixed media collage paintings that will be available this Sunday in The Village of Palmyra art market. 12-5, come see local talent and support small businesses.
