It was a surprise to me when I started receiving artistic creations from my guests that were inspired by their stay here at the Surgeon's House. After some consideration, however, it seems a very natural reaction. The house, grounds and gardens are so very lush and beautiful that they were bound to stimulate folks of an artistic persuasion. Below, you see the work of local artist, Mark Hemleben. Mark specializes in "plein air" canvases of Jerome and the local environs. If you would like to see more of his work, click on the following link: Mark Hemleben.

Another fine artist, Pama Peckham, normally a painter(see example directly above) whose work can be found here: Artists Register, was moved to take the following photo of the wysteria that hangs over my front porch.



It seems that the wysteria moved more than one artist. Well known photographer, Dale O'Dell, presented me with three beautiful 8.5" by 11" mounted photographs, one of which can be seen below. If you would like to see more of Dale's work, click on: Dale's Photos.




Jim Fox and his wife Mary Alice stayed with me just after New Year's. We had received a very beautiful snowfall that night, and Jim, who had taken up painting in water colors just recently, felt compelled to paint my house in snow. I have to admit, it's very magical when it snows in Jerome.




Binu and Amy Jacobs visited me on their fourth wedding anniversary and took the lovely photographs below. I think that you can feel their love and joy in these images.





Don Feher sent the photos below. .
